While you are at it Mr. Farnsworth Q. Forbes ...

you will be wanting a captain/crew/galley slave/steward. I would consider it for 100K per annum.

Farnsworth....

May I suggest you contact Wooden Boat Magazine? Each month they feature on the next to last page a wooden boat in need of restoration. I would suggest you contact Maynard Bray @ 207-359-4651. If you are serious and have good intentions then please allow me to say good luck and fair winds. To be financially able to perserve historic wooden boats is a blessing. Dick Dixon CD EXPRESS

Yea, but Tim.....

.... GREAT looking boat, nice fireplace, but where is the piano? By the way, that epoxy injected type of construction is really interesting. I think if I were considering a restoration project and there had to be some re-planking or installation of new ribs this would be something to consider. For wood boats, check the Port Townsend area in Washington. This is a real major wood-boat hub for the Northwest.

Ring-Anderson

She's still for sale. I've seen her myself and taken a good peek on board. While not pre-1930, she may be what you're looking for.

Hmmm

I think the fumes that Farnsworth was sniffing may have overcome him. You out there Farnsworth? Farnsworth....? One of my goals before I die is to take a bath in a hand carved wooden bath tub ;-) Just for the record John, that was an organ in Antonisa and the italian owner has since paid Hodgdon yachts to send a crew of craftsman to Italy and remove it. I guess he needed more storage for his cash! Tim R.

This aint for real

If Farnsworth does exist, then he aint for real. If this was serious, he wouldnt be on here asking us. He would have to be very wealthy to buy one in good condition and even wealthier to buy one in not so good condition. Tony B

Farnsworth old boy,

Howels about I call you Thurston? I don't know of a proper wooden vessel for you. However if you want a blue water tested, some say classic, known the world over, honestly patinaed, strikenly original personal yacht for as little as a hundred large then you should call captn Patrick
