Its condition below par,
No windows, deck planking & she leaks,
Not aluminum, fiberglass nor steel,
But good old fashioned wood,
Built like a classic should,
Though to the wrecking yard if a car it were, it would…
She’s gonna need a lot of tender loving care,
It’s a project that would be fun, if the money were there,
To one day see this old beauty plying the waters somewhere,
But for now, no, unless somebody out there has a few dimes to spare…
The poor old girl just needs some love,
And maybe several or so a pair of work glove,
Sitting on land she did look so forlorn,
She’s not dead yet, maybe one day I can see her reborn…?

OK Jersey now lets stop talking a do the moving. I mean it!

Kinda looks like the SS Minnow, the guy that told you to take it didn't go by the name Skipper did he and have a helper named Gilligan? Just kidding buddy, I know what it is like to have a dream, I still wish every day that I could have another cycle between my legs but sadly funds just aren't there. good luck buddy.
Fee
The boat yard said take her for free,
But to move her they'd have to charge a fee...e
So claim her, and leave her right there, and get busy fixin her up - and don't forget to stock her with beer and booze!
Bet you'll have quite a few words to write about her rehabilitation. Have lots of fun with her. Cheers! Liz
