    50 tons of shred Wash

    A crazy craigslist post for a 64' steel sailboat on Whidbey Island. You haul



    64' Bruce Roberts Sailboat

    I have some background info on this if anyone is interested. You can drive on the island from the North or take a ferry.

    Wow!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    I wonder how much lead is in the keel? Right now, we're paying $0.50 per pound for soft lead (the market jumped big time on lead a couple weeks ago).

    The lead never made it into the keel to my knowledge. Years ago there were two pallets of lead ingots and the plans called for 5 tons of ballast...
