Hi John,
Sorry I didn't get to meet you at the MSBA meeting, maybe the next ? the reason for the Fire sale is - I bought one on ebay then after conversing with the seller, ended up buying all she had ! 13 total - kept 4 for myself and family, sold 3 to friends.
the rest are what's left ! What i'm doing is selling off the rest in this venue at a fair price saving SB. commer's some money, and I come out with 4 vests for my trouble.
All the auto deploy vests have gotten new water activated "bobbins" and have been inflated and checked for leaks.
They are all in new to excellent shape - except the one with the cut - which I could patch, but would rather the person buying do the patch for obvious reasons.
As a sideline, just took my boat for its "maiden voyage" this PM.
19' Casco Bay - 115 Mariner - named "Relief Valve". All went well. Sure was nice to be back in the harbor after so long, you all will be hearing more from me as time goes on - I consider myself a "beginner" although I had spent a great deal of time fishing with my Dad (27+ years ago!). I remember a lot, but still lots to re-learn. Little different having the wheel without him next to me co-piloting !! But I'll start off slow - and everybody from the MSBA has been great for advice and info.! Also this forum has been a great source for me - I check it daily ! Hats off to you John and all that have input in this site.
Good fishing to all.
