My M is temporarily docked at Blue Springs Marina on Watts Dar Lake where the bottom was painted and new anodes installed. All the work is complete but I am working 12 hour shifts and don’t get off until Thursday when I hope to make the trip to my M’s new home Concord Marina on Ft Loudoun Lake. Yesterday 11/09/10 I was on the dock checking on my M when I meet a very nice couple that had recently purchased a 41 Marquis that was docked across from me. After some pleasant M conversation we discovered that the previous owner of my M Mike M had also owned their M. I called Mike M when I left the dock and he praised the 41M as a great boat that he had purchased after a Middle Eastern diplomat had abandoned in the DC area. It seams the diplomat had left the country and left the boat with his personal belongings on the M. Mike cleaned her up and enjoyed her for the next 11 months on Lake Lanier Ga. Small world that both boats end up on the same TN lake docked 20 feet apart years later. As I was leaving there was the sweet music ad Mark fired up his M. Great day on the dock.

Jeff,
Your BigM is sure shining . Hate to see you leave; kind of a little pride in having as many BigM 's here at the dock. Always something to look at on them or just jaw about. I'm sure you will be glad to be at Concord which is a beautiful marina and a lot closer to home.:d/ Got to go to Decatur and then take her out for a few hours.

Tim: Yard Dog “the yard man” told your story just like you requested and I just could not believe it. I told him you were too nice to do such a thing, and he broke and told the truth on you. I was shocked for a minute.
