[Rhodes22-list] Florida Syndicate

Art,
   
  There is no trailer with this boat. The syndicate would have to buy a trailer and whatever other parts (mast) are needed. I think it would be best if the syndicate would send the boat to stan for repairs.
   
  What I'm offering is a convenient place for the boat in exchange for usage. This will considerable reduce the costs involved and may make the shares more affordable. What are the storage/slip costs for the Byscane Bay area? I am a bit familiar with that area and I can tell you it is going to be very expensive.
   
  I have a slip convenient to the Sarasota Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, and I'm willing to deliver the boat to the syndicates members who want to use it in Florida, but do not want to come to Bradenton to pick it up.

  Luis,
Does the boat come with a trailer, and what condition is it in? I suspect the boat would be in better circumstances with your oversight and attention, although you would have much to do getting it ready for first use in the summer. What would the mast and other equipment cost?
