Hey Gent's!  Thought you all might like to have a gander.  Just put up for auction..  can you beleive this, bid online, just two days to go.!!!!  I wonder what it will go for.  Click on the links. When you get the pic, click a second time for "enormous" full size Picture.  Drool at will....  This is incredible.

I saw a whole slew of pictures on the insurance company's website. Amazing at the amount of damage on the bottom, but I'm wondering if that was caused by hoising it out of the water.

Most probably...even on the first pic you can see where the straps were.

The cockpit is amazingly complete though. All is in, even the manuals!
We will try to check the amount it went for (if disclosed!)
