I'm not quite sure I understand the question.
It's a little big for the Detroit River or Lake St Clair.
It is a live aboard sailing yacht capable of going any place you want it
to take you.
Does that help?

Oh, I dunno. Last week, I turned down (gently) an assignment to shoot
antique powerboats from the water. Just the thought of dipping the
camera gear was enough...old mechanical cameras dried pretty well if
rinsed in distilled water, but these digital SLRs do not do wet. Too,
these days, if I'm on water, I prefer a vessel the size of, say, the
Titanic, but without ice bergs.

You laugh. Fellow locally posted a forsale:
"Hot tub. Comfortably fits one male and four females."
Sold it in two hours.

Lew, I did that. But what the heck kind of boat IS it? I just called it
a yacht (bigger than a rowboat with a flushing toilet).

I think your ambitions run to deeper water than mine. I like to canoe
the Crosswinds marsh down near Monroe. Max depth ~20 feet, mostly <3 ft.
And the canoe livery is free. ;-)

When they expanded Metro Airport they chewed through some marshland.
They had to replace it with new marshland at the ratio of 1.5:1.
Crosswinds marsh has 3 Bald Eagles and is shallow enough that even the
most skittish feel comfortable with it.
My canoe has no business where your yacht goes and your yacht is useless
where I want to go.
Different strokes ... but I like the quiet that goes with canoing.
Ahem ... however, I DID link back to your site from mine.

Others have posted their stuff here, and it's definately "woodworking"
related, so maybe one of us will want something who wouldn't see it listed
elsewhere (like me). Keep it short with no pictures)

Around here it has always been acceptable/customary to put "FS" at the
beginning of the subject line and post away with text only ... as his

Just thought it was not proper etiquette to try and sell stuff here. A few

Many thanks.
Now all that remains is to find a young stud with more money than
brains, who wants to accept a "Challenge".

Now, Lew ... you ain't going anywhere with that attitude, bubba!
Think "girls gone wild wooddorker" ...
Get out that camera, find/hire a couple of hotties in thong bikini's, and
have them posing/working all over that boat, then post those pictures on
your page ... you'll have fun, and you can't lose, even it you do. :)
Let me know if your heart can't stand it ... I may be available.

Being a native Buckeye who spent several years sailing the waters of
Lake Erie, am familiar with the area, including the cooling tower at Monroe.
Have made the trek up the rivers and Lake St Clair to get to the North
Channel and the Georgian Bay more than once.
It's what made me want to get a bigger boat.

Would appreciate it very much if those of you with web sites would
considering adding a link to my web site.

Thank you.
BTW, woodworking content. Ever look at the inside of a cruising sail boat?
