I think it is pretty low to donate a boat that is in such troubled shape to a charity. If the boat is in such bad shape and they have to dispose of it, it will end up costing the charity money as a general rule....

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
