What happened to the Docs boat??

And where the hell did he go? He was really into running this thing a few years back and was a stapple on the FPC circuit. The boat looks like it's sat outside, un-covered for the past few years! Sad.

Doc hasn't owned the boat in some time.

I hope someone rescues it...

Didn't that one used to say "Zero Cavity" on it? The radar arch is gone, too.

Yes and thank god the radar arch is gone. It was hideous.

Someone does need to rescue that thing. It was a great re-do by Mcmanus.

I beleive there was 1 made, right? The boat would look nice with a new paint job on it. The yellow interior should be gray, but the layout of the cabin and stuff is nice. Who has the boat now?

I guess you could say that. I tried to appreciate that boat and did because it was a one-off. Other than that, I was not impressed with the Mcmanus upgrades. But, as you know, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Thanks. Phil at Lip-Ship is very fussy about fit and finish and usaually sends a boat back to the factory or just fixes it himself if something isn't 100% right.
