Recycle the metal and fuel tank, cut ‘em into pieces and drop into a tub-grinder. When is the snow going to melt up there in the frozen north?

A bit like the cockroaches that will be all that survive a nuclear blast, that Origo stove is in perfect shape!

I sure love mine. It is one of the few things on my boat that will never break. Everything else on a boat is either broken or about to break (B.O.A.T).

I saw the winches too. Probably just need to be serviced.
Also that blue bumper probably still works.
The galley sink is maybe a $200 item new. We nearly replaced ours till I saw the price and repaired instead.

looks to me like a boat after the USCG got a level three complete - deconstruct search warrant on probable cause it had $$$$$$$ drugs hidden some where. or a hurricane, take your choice...

Trying to run drugs on a Bristol 26 would be an exceedingly bad plan. I'll go with the hurricane debris.

I'm going with just old and zero or negative economic value.

For sure! I've seen them. They sit with FOR SALE signs, season after season. Then They are rejections from donation non-profits. That's when the owner is suddenly faced with the reality: his old glass boat has taken on a negative value.

Storage yards and marinas get stuck with them. No income from the storage space they're taking so they pay to have them cut up. Cheaper in the long run.

The glut is yet to come.

Maybe Bristol 27. Came with either outboard or inboard. The cover in the cockpit looks right. Winches are too small for a bigger boat. They had two different galley layouts - this would be the dinette option. Quarter berth barely accessible behind galley.

broken or about to
How can this be the first time I've seen that version?! I've only ever heard the other version: "Break Out Another (ten) Thousand"...
