[Boatanchors] HOLY %^$#*

I remember looking at it just for a possible winter project, but it was 
local pick up only.

If I had even guessed people who know something that I certainly don't 
know about, would pay that kind of money for it, I could certainly have 
found a way to pick it up. <grin>

The point of the original sale and the current offering point, would 
indicate that it is indeed the same rig.

I certainly would be interested in the reason that it commands such a 
high price, once the new owner has it.

There has to be an interesting history to it, that I for one would enjoy 
hearing.
