Jim, Do you remember the 53 Classic with tan stripes "Rubiayat" from our Anchorage Marina days in the late
80's? This is that boat.

Back when I was a kid my dad went looked at a mid-1980's 53' ED for sale in Daytona Beach named "Philip J" that he was thinking of buying. From the first time I set foot aboard when I was 6, I swore I'm going to have one of those someday. It took until I was 39 to pull it off, so I don't know that I'd call myself young, but in terms of my dream boat I have never even considered wanting something else.
