My recent diagnosis has spurred Nancy and me to rethink our plans for the coming years.
Since we are not independently wealthy, we have to prioritize how we want to spend our disposable income.
We have decided that we want to spend the funds we currently have tied up in the boat towards travel. Therefore, we will be putting Willow on the market in the near future.
Illinois is months behind on issuing boat titles, so we will either have to wait for the new title or we will be willing to sell earlier with the title to follow.
We feel bad putting our boating adventures behind us, but sometimes life circumstances help clarify things.
Fair winds to us all!

Bud and Nancy,
Prayers for health and wisdom through your future adjustments. AS you make your choices, they have to fit you and your priorities, and don't forget, you are always welcome back here, or anytime you see a C-Dory, stop and tell the current owner about yours and your trips. Always fun.
Harvey
