Here is a link to it

Is there a market for this? It is in good shape, missing a few things I think?
I will get a pic |

| It is made for rough water it has ballest bags on the bottom, here is a pic of the front.
Oops wrong computer, it has a boading platform on the front and a door, what you see now is a viewing porthole.

| That thing IS cool. But, I gotta tell ya Kirt....and, let me first say, I don't know how old your sons are... If they are too young to enjoy it now, keep it and let them enjoy it later.
If my Grandpa gave ME something that cool, and my Dad decided to sell it...well...let's just say I wouldn't be a happy camper for a long while.
By your own admission, it belongs to your sons. Don't sell it. Let them do with it what they want. If it becomes a fort in the backyard, so be it. They will be the envy of the neighborhood with a fort like that!
If they trash it, so be it...that's what boys do. lol
FWIW, Just my take on it....;)

| Forgive me, but when I met you at Red Wing, there was no way that I thought you looked old enough to have boys that age yet.
