Bon Conge

About

I was always taught that beauty should be respected, honored, treasured, and preserved at any cost. Equally so, I grew up in an era where classic yachts and cars became prized possessions. As a collector of exotics, one  becomes extremely excited the second that BON CONGE glides into view. You "just know" that you are witnessing a spectacularly incredible example of American Maritime history. Your heart races, your eyes lovingly take in her magnificent lines and condition. You find yourself holding your breath as she slips into her berth and you watch as lines are being made secure on Bronze cleats.  You can easily see why she has won 16 trophies in a variety of very exclusive CLASSIC YACHT SHOWS. As you walk the 42' of dock space that she now occupies, you 'JUST KNOW" that you must possess this one of a kind extraordinary yacht. She has to be yours. To your amazement you spy a small sign that tells you who to reach out to in order to possess her. You search your pockets to find that nuisance, your cell phone and you punch in the phone numbers with shaky fingers. You ask with bated breath, "Is BON CONGE still available for you to preview." And you are invited to take your first step towards possessing BON CONGE by reading this listing. I have been told that my listing is inadequate to describe her magnificence. But enjoy the read and call to make arrangements to visit her in person. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE NOT A TRUE CONNOISSEUR, DON'T BOTHER TO READ HER LISTING.  BON CONGE is ready to serve another family for years to come...
