When they flew down to pick up the boat it was provisioned, full of fuel, and a large cooler on board packed with ice and drinks. They spent the night on board. I got on with them the next morning to run the first 100 or so miles, and do the first three locks. They got the hang of it, and my wife picked me up. We stayed in touch for years as they cruised. Then the gentleman passed away. I am glad the boat went to such good hands.
Well done Moonstruck shame not more sellers are as gracious as you
