    Nice Allan......No such thing as too many boats. Oh wait, I was up to 12 and now down to 4.

    That will make a nice lake boat for darn sure !!!! Good score...

            Chuck, good to see your on the mend. I read Kelly's post on his fall South Sound cruise. All three of us should conspire to get a 2015 weekend reserved for a Jerrel Cove South Sound Rendezvous. It would be a good time.

            Your correct, the Dorsett Farrallon Sue-Sea-Q is moored behind door no. 1.

            The plan on the Bellboy, in order.

            1. Restore / refurbish / repaint the Teen Trailer

            2. Check out the 35 Johnson with the hope of maintaining the original power plant

            3. Restore the Bellboy

            The trailer is in amazingly good condition with the biggest flaw being its black rattle can paint job that covers the classic Tee Nee yellow. I suspect a 1970s upgrade. The Johnson has spent several decades in the weather and an attempt by a grandson of the original owner to remove the controls unfortunately resulted in several broken connecting points. He turned his attention to the Bellboy and broke off the original name plates, broke off the original controls, pulled off the horn and tossed it, threw out the seats and finally broke off the steering wheel and lost it too. I am glad he consider his work complete at that point and that Tim and his wife Stacey stepped in and rescued her from anymore misguided improvements.

            I am planning on an 18 month project and will post my progress, will ask and shout out for help, all the while enjoying the Sue-Sea-Q.

            Having more than one boat is a communicable disease. Not sure if Marty, Helmar, or Chuck infected me but having the Bellboy trailing me home defiantly ended my state of denial that, I too, was afflicted.

              Good to see you made it to the new forum software.
              I myself do not see that the images have crossed over and something we need to work on.
              Nothing easy.........
