Here's one more reason to raise the boat from the dead. It is the respectful thing to do to nature.

Why create the waste? Why support the throwaway culture? You could just haul it out and go sell it or sink it or scrap it. It would be awful to the earth though. I think buying new boats is unconscionable when there are boats lke this that need to be revived. Bugger all the voodoo economics lectures.
From reading a couple of your "thrift" lectures I doubt anyone should take advise from someone who does all their marine shopping at home depot, walmart or the scrapyard.
