Probably have to use google Maps to scout out the marinas in S.F., then street view or a local boating newspaper to find the shot.

Some people want to sell, but then get upset if asked for prices or photos in public (I don't know why) obviously the forum has it's rule that you have to set a price, but placing a photo is beyond some.

I know a guy that doesn't have a computer, takes film photos, gets them developed and sends them to me by mail hardcopy when I ask questions of his collection.

Not all are savvy in the ways of modern communications.
Heck I found out the word 'amoung' (among) is not spelled with a U the other day and states that the U is an "archaic" spelling...so now I'm archaic? :shock: My fingers automatically add that U when typing too. :lol:

just curious if your boat is in crockett ca.there are two lcvp's moored at nantucket restaurant and marina.looks like they need restoration.one has a wheel house,and the other one does'nt.i think they are of a 50's era.and they are still floating.

i think aaron needs to give out a little more information on the location of the marina where the higgins boat is located.he might have a better chance of selling it.
