Your Chance: A FREE Trumpy
A loyal reader of WoodenBoat sent this to me. I hope you are interested.
Trumpy
"I am asking you to please help me. I am searching for a good home for a Historic 1919 Mathis-Trumpy, The Grand Lady (originally Riette II). As you may know she is one of the oldest Trumpy yachts still alive. She in critical need of restoration/reconstruction and currently sits in the water in a plastic bladder in Satsuma FL.
This boat is FREE to a good home.
If you can help me out in ANY way (brainstorming, referring me to people/resources/sites, etc) I would love to hear from you. This was my father's boat and he just passed away. I have only two and a half months to find the boat a home before her demise and I have limited contacts and knowledge because I am not familiar with boats.
Email me HERE."
We'd like her to find a good new home, and an owner who can restore her to perfection.
