The Butler Did It

Someone spent the night of 9/10 - 9/11 on it and turned on the heat in the aft cabin.
They left a pillow laying on the heater and the inevitable happened. The boat has no
structural damage, but the aft cabin is gutted, and the whole interior is smoke and heat
damaged and the insurance company totaled it. The only good thing that has happened
is that it was bought from the insurance company by a guy in Chicago who has a boat
yard and it looks like he is going to restore it. His name is Paul Rentner, he's a member
of MBOA national."
