[Public-list] Re: Gulf Island 29

[Elaine and Brian Timmins]

If this is the one listed at Yachtworld, it's real pretty.

I only question a 70,000 rebuild, and asking 32,000.
Was rebuild in 2002 or 2004(one spot says 02, another 04). Does it really 
look as nice as the listing photos? Has a surveyor checked it out yet? If it 
really is as nice as it looks and claims, you could think of it as a new 
boat.
