We lost a favorite family boat this weekend. In Atlanta the saying is "Watch out for the trees". My brother lost "Mortal Danger" to an oak. 1970's 16 foot Starcraft. Great boat. We now have the unique opportunity of finding another hull for the engine.

Ouch, sorry to hear about that Ray. At least no one was hurt & hopefully insurance will help towards the next one.

I've got a fiberglass 14 ft tri-hull that's been in the family for 20 some odd years. Great little boat, I can imagine how I'd feel if it happened to me. Hope you're able to find a decent replacement!
