Well, to close the original thread subject matter, I learned from the owners of KK Manatee hull #15 that disappeared during the recent hurricane “Florence” is now in a landfill. Swanee was found holed on the port side and laying upside down over a piling. The pilothouse was completely sheared off and never located. Insurance paid off 100% and the owners, after 14 years on the water, are giving up the cruising life. Swanee, RIP.

So what’s the problem?? It sounds like most of the boats I see for sale on Craigslist [emoji846]
 
I've never been accused of being overly sentimental - but that's a tough way to loose a beloved vessel. Glad the owners survived OK.
