Winter Cruise

[Scottdock]

Just returned from taking a 2005 Riviera 47 Sportfish from Fall River Mass down to Ft Lauderdale. Started out on Jan 13 and dodged many storms. Was in the Hudson minutes before the plane landing. Entire vessel covered with 6 inches of ice! Hit submerged object in the Alligator/ Pungo Canal. Took out starboard prop,shaft and strut! Finally made it! The vessel was properly named "Elizabeth Storm".

The new owner wanted the boat asap! He was willing to pay whatever it took to get the boat to South Florida. I cannot seem to post any pics as they are too large for the format!

Just open them in paint [goto start / all programs / accessories / paint] then inside of paint open the image and [click Image up top / Strech & Skew] and make the percentage lower, maybe 50% or even 25% if they are large in paint.
