restore now
Posted: Sat Jun 12, 2010 10:14 pmWhat a classic reminder and opportunity for me to toot my own horn. I would direct you to the top of the DS II forum where you will find a sticky note on how to get a book on maintenance and restoration of this wonderful boat. You can also e-mail me direct at roger.conrad@mts.net to find out how to order your book or CD, (or both). I consider this my duty in saving the DS from such similar fate as these flower pots.

The motor well flower pots are a real nice touch however.

The fiberglass doesn't rot per say so after you give your wife the flowers and remove the weeds and dirt you should have a base boat that can be salvaged.

Might overpower a DS Garden, but worth a shot, I think.

I still like the DS Garden better but it does give me a few ideas for a vegetable garden. ''I could'a had a V8''. Brad
