    Goodbye

    While the site is up and running I wanted to say my goodbyes. It has been interesting, informative, and helpful coming here for the past few years, but it has gotten increasingly sporadic so I am dropping by only occasionally now. If anyone wants to contact me my email is dgill25960@aol.com. Take care, Bill

    There's an ebb and flow to everything.

    And then there's five months of winter in the Northeast!

    A public forum like this is only as good as its members and you are one of the good ones.

    Stop by and say hi and keep us posted on all your cool boats.

    Goodbye in French and Chinese is not forever

    I like how the French say au revoir and the Chinese say zai jian, both basically mean see you later. I sad to see you go since I just finished going through and enjoying every post of your Classic 18 restoration thread.

    Well, you're only stopping by sporadically because you have too many boats to take care of. I keep tellin' ya to dump that Warlock of yours.

    Take care Bill and hope to see you back.

    Bill,

    Definitely hope to see you when you drop by on occasion. Learned a lot from your experiences that you've shared. I'll send you my email address. Your everyday presence will be missed around here.

    Regards,

    Mike

    No need to leave , as has already been said.
    Just pop in now and again and if something catches your eye , then speak up and share that experience !
    We don't want you to take it with you , you know .
    Just because something's old doesn't mean you throw it away !

    Thanks guys. I mostly wanted to let you all know how much I enjoyed the site and many of you in case it goes down permanently as I have seen other forums close with little warning.

    Bill wishing you all the best of luck in whatever the future may bring you. Was thinking of ya when I ran to NY Harbor on Monday. I had both the Donzi and the 23 Offshore out during the day. 68 degrees two days ago, 34 degrees and a snow storm today! 48 hour "later" shot of the garage ..... ouch.

    Take care in Texas, some pictures to close the door Sir .........

    PS: Let me know when you're ready to add a 26 Offshore to the fleet. 23, 26, 28 ..........has a nice ring to it

    It does seem to be going downhill which is a shame. I check the Donzi forums every day but spend a lot more time on OSO these days.

    Hi Greg,
    I don't plan on adding any more boats, but thanks. I've had two guys try to buy the 23' Warlock after showing it to friends, but we did not even get to the money talk when I told them it was not for sale. A local upholsterer quoted $3500 for the interior work with me supplying the upholstery and taking out the seats so I will let them get more use before spending so much since the interior is not that bad. Take care up there, Bill
