Old boat scars and memories
Posted: Sat Jun 20, 2020 11:38 am
If you have an old toon like Betty and Me when you look at dings and scratches or dents I am sure you have a story to go with it,
Our toon is 16yr old, we have had lots of good times and some not so good but still they are memories we cherish.
Ours has all kind of battle wounds from dent in front corner from a tree in middle of lake (who would have guessed it would be there). scratches and dings where my Daughter took it to party cove and used no bumpers tying to other boats. Have others to remind us of all the fun we have had in the 16 years we have owned the boat.
We participated in an on lake wedding, to twice a guest got a call for a death in the family. One of my closest friends who died from cancer ask to have his ashes spread on the lake.
I am 73 now and it's getting harder every year to keep it going. Things I used to do to maintain the boat I now have to pay to have done. When we give it up it will be passed on to our son and daughter. We have been lucky to have kept the boat under cover it's whole life so it still looks pretty good.
Would love to hear of your stories about your boat scars
