BTW Chasemixon, I paid less than 2000.00 for my salvage '81 H22, trailer and 6Hp engine...I did not think that the new centerboard's expense was too much for peace of mind, and I knew this was a project boat with a slow and potentially costly restoration.
Crazy Dave,
Thanks for the offfer, I'm not in VA all that often, but am familiar with the LOWER James River....closer to the US Navy's mothball fleet.
