Who else is obsessed by small boats? Symptons include scrolling through Craigs list constantly even though you KNOW you don't need another boat, constantly reading reviews and getting opinions about another boat you don't really need, spending as much time looking at boats in people's yards etc as you do watching the road as you drive.

14 ft cedar plank skiff for SRC
15 ft Trumbly sailer (in mothballs)
12 ft gregor aluminum (dragging on the beach, kids boat)
Then there's the wife's kayak
and a 16 ft Listerbuilt cedar strip inboard (brother and I need to restore - see pic)
and the Century my Dad just got done restoring
Could very well be - My Dad got the hull probably 30 years ago somewhere in Tacoma and we rigged her up when I was a kid. Great little sail boat, needs some cosmetic work, another project.

does the TU Colorado v-float tube count as a boat? naw
Edit: hey Milt, did you have boat #2 on a trailer going thru inspection station? I think I may have figured out who the inspector was talkin' about when they said mine was the 2nd prettiest they'd seen.
