Tough luck on your boat, Randy, but it looks like a good buy for someone
who has the skills to fix it. I've posted your ad on the Potter Yachters
web page <http://songbird.com/py/boats.htm> so please let me know when you
sell the boat or if you want to change the ad.
I will also forward this exchange to the Potter mail list.
