[rescue] Boats?

[rescue at sunhelp.org]

My personal dreamboat has always been a wood-era Century Coronado. My
absolute favorite would be the 1963/64 gullwing. I LOVE boats that looked
like cars in the 1960's.

Of course, in my dream boathouse you would also find the ultraclassic
Century Resorter runabout (like in "On Golden Pond"). While I'm in fantasy
mode, the Boston Whaler Harpoon Weekender sailcraft would be in the stable
too.
