Looks like something my great uncle Loyd would have resurrected back in the day, he called sailboats stick boats

Hmmmm. I do have that open space in my driveway now

All I'd need is a 1975 Dodge B-van shaggin' wagon to pull her with.

BTW: Bob Hope was once entertained on the Bessie May!

LOL, from what I've read about here. It seems that this boat has a history of owners who's wives didn't care for her, starting with Mrs. Phelps back in 1932.

Wow, my wallet just barfed up a big lint ball just thinking about what it would cost to keep this baby up.

That is some museum quality looking boating material there.

Thanks,
