The KRUSTY KRAB
(Before)
    The Krusty Krab was given to me.  The prvious owner had neglected her for several years and did not want to spend the time or money necessary for repairs.
     These are some of the "Before" pictures.

Hanging Locker
Head...are they supposed               V Berth - I wasn't about to              The Hanging Locker
   to leak like that?                                  sleep in there!
    Needless to say, I had a few projects ahead of me. 
     Most of these pictures are from the inside of the vessel, AFTER it had a foot of water pumped out.
     The rigging was equally gooned up!  No halyards?  Below the waterline, the hull had barnachles the size of quarters all over it (I didn't know they got that big).  Above the waterline, there were soft spots on deck, and the hardware all needed to be re-sealed.
     But, I saw the potential.
     The Krusty Krab is still crusty, but she's come a long way!
