One of the best boat stories ever told! And great media, as always. Congrats Betsy!
How fun to hear your comments Brandt while considering where in the world you may be at the moment. I hope your travels are absolutely wonderful!
Betsy, those post-fire pictures are PAINFUL to examine, but to see her out on the water after your restoration is wonderful, indeed!
I so agree with you Pete. That phrase “what were we thinking” comes to mind when I see the photos!!! Hope all’s well with you.
Great save!
