    Description

    I don't know much about boats, so if an eBay member can fill me in on anything I might like to include in this description, I'd be beholden.  I imagine that with some attention, this could be a very sweet little model.  The hull is 20" long and about 4.25" wide.  The rigging looks OK, though I haven't examined it closely, and some of the sails are intact.  Other sails are frayed, torn, or disintegrated.  This would make a worthwhile project for someone who knows the ropes, as they say.  I've done enough wood refinishing to know it will be beautiful when restored.
    Shipping:  buyers have mentioned that eBay's price estimator has been coming up with some wacky numbers lately, so don't be alarmed if it gives you laughable number.  To get a better idea of the actual cost, go to USPS, enter the dimensions--24x20x8; the weight--4lbs; and my Zip Code--94956.  I'll get it to you as inexpensively as possible.  USPS Ground Advantage is far less expensive than the other USPS services, so use that as your baseline.  If FedEx will be cheaper, I'll be happy to do it that way.
