[QUOTE="Cowcatcher, post: 4106082, member: 43171"] Well…..do you have any children that you think might appreciate it someday? It didn’t cost you anything so if it sits in the closet until you feel the right decision presents itself then you aren’t out anything. Now, the question is, what would grandad do? About 10 years ago my grandad passed away. A couple years later I was offered his boat which I spent many many hours fishing with him on. It was a saltwater boat and the salt had taken its toll. Especially in the last few years of his life when he was doing the heavy maintenance a saltwater boat requires. I threw more money at that boat than it was worth and took all of my kids out on it as I told them stories of my childhood on it. I finally gave up on getting the boat into the condition I felt it should be in. After it sat for a couple years with me thinking that I could never sell Poppas boat I asked myself, what would Poppa do? Well he wouldn’t just own a pile of rot. So, I put the boat up for sale. Just so happened a neighbor was looking for a project exactly like it. I took every dime and invested it in a big toolbox and many upgrade tools. I see it like……I inherited this box and tools from Poppa and I use them daily. I might have forgotten that boat just sitting out there rotting but now I see my grandad every morning when I walk into my shop. So my opinion is…..If that gun ain’t your thing then sell it and find something that is unless you have a child you think would appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
