Nothing.... I mean nothing, looks as fine as a well loved boat.
Big-small, newer or older than dirt... a loved and maintained boat is a beautiful thing.

Always feel sad when I happen across ones like this...
Obviously nearly sank before (note high water mark near bow), pumped and way down on her lines again. Sails laying on deck, full of green mould.
This was in a decent marina at Venice Beach Florida.
Seemed so out of place...
Sad to see...
God made small boats for younger boys and older men

I agree completely! but sometimes just as a person gets their boat ready, and thinks they have some free time...life sure can throw many a consecutive curved balls!

I 'd hate for anyone to take a close look a Tehani these days. She looks disgusting, but not by choice. Hoping to get enough better to work on her soon repairing the damage from Harvey

Totally agree on "life's curve balls"
Been there....

That said, there are lots of these around...
Too many...
