I know of one here that’s been parked under a shed for many years while being 
“worked on.”  While it’s out of the weather I’m not sure it is gaining any 
benefit from being parked up.  Beautiful piece of craft though, it’s like a 
piece of high-end furniture

Obviously needs some work but still very classy and surprisingly
reasonable. I remember these Sleek and powerful boats taking passengers for
joy rides on the Hudson up river from NYC.
