Arrivderci, Ciao Bella!
 

Here I report that my 1972 Seafari Ciao Bella has been sold to a new owner - none other than Connor Davis! He has taken it to North Carolina to begin a new chapter. Best of luck, Connor - Fair Winds, and Following Seas to you.

Congrats!
 

A big congratulations to both of you and knowing Connor will treat her well.

Absolutely!

Was just wondering what Connor was up to. Happy for both of you guys.

Very happy with the boat(thank you John), but it is so LITTLE! I got very used to the size and carrying capacity of the 25. If I hadn't already done with my first 20 what I'm planning with this boat, I'd think it wasn't possible, but I know it is. Spent most of today in the boat, figuring out where stuff will store.

I've got a lot of work to do, kicker, full enclosure, maybe new engine, tabs, lots of small stuff, It will keep me busy for this winter, should be all ready by spring. I'll post something then, with some pics

Where in NC?

I remember driving that van last year.....
Had to hide it at Area 442 for covert operation.

Congrats Connor !

And another thank you to NoBones. He is a great host. The van is old and ugly but runs good. With any luck I'll keep it for the next decade.

If you ever want to part with that galley you scored recently. I'll take it!
