SeaNile is gone

Post by JK »

Accepted the offer, survey went well, money wired and I am now boatless! 10 years of ownership, bought from the original owner, countless memories, new friends and now it is time to take a break from boating for a while. Boat will be going to NC and sounds like she will have a well cared for pampered life.

www.seanile31.com tells the story

I have been following your story closely and I am very glad that you were able to sell your boat.

I echo the others in saying that your work on that boat was incredible

Congratulations on the sale. I know it probably feels like a load has been taken off your shoulders.

She was a real pretty boat, I know it was probably tough parting with her.

Sweet and Sour Day I'm sure.....You can always do it again when the time is right.

But after a boat like SeaNile how long do you actually think you can hold out??

I think you'll be back sooner than later..

Good Luck..

JK-

I guess congrats and condolences sums it up pretty well. SeaNile is a beauty. I guess you'll be fishin' with Luke? You and yours will always have a ride mid-Bay on my B31--I still owe ya.

JK...

Seeing pics of SeaNile was one of the factors that convinced me to start rebuilding Phoenix. Sorry to see her go.. hopefully she went to a good home.

Where in NC will she be? I would like to see her up close one day.

Brings a tear to my eye, When i was looking for my boat, my wife kept saying.."i like that one" i want that one" why cant we get that one, when are you going to make ours look like that.... i got news for her, my boat is never gonna look that good.
truly one of the nicest boats on the market, sorry she had to go,
I know you are sad, the gentleman i bought mine from followed it to the freeway once the truck picked it up.
