The first Romance





The family took a day trip to see the boat for the first time three weeks ago. This was after talking the details out with the owners and moving forward on our agreement about the boat. The marina was in a great location, clean bathrooms and we could park right in front of the catwalk to the slips. Our other club you had to park a long distance away from the action and even further away from the docks. This should make life alot easier taking supplies to the boat or having to get stuff out of the car. Photos of the boat when we first arrived.





The deck was in good shape, standing rigging was in great condition, there was a scratch in tge gelcoat forward port, and some minor bootstrip marks on starboard. The transom has some damage starboard top that will need some glass work but nothing jumped out at us.



The top sides looked to be in good condition also, we knocked about looking for any soft spots or rot. There is one spot forward in front of the mast that looks like compression, i will check below to see what is attached.



The interior looked to be in fair condition, mildew was growing due to a wet sump, the cushions were all stacked, and all of the doors were open to allow fresh air.
