Good pictures Richard, thanks, that pretty much tells the whole story. Reminds me of a wood Lyman boat that I almost bought last year. At 2' it looked good, but when my finger went through the dry rotted keel, it answered all questions. Wood boats, like wood railroad cars and wood houses and trestles, can, and should be, be maintained, but that means replacing decayed or otherwise failed parts, or in museum terms, "original fabric".
We're anxiously awaiting more pictures of 1008!
