Please welcome Jim Hilton to the Southern New England district. Jim successfully outbid the planned restoration group of Charlie, Mark & Bill to buy KAOS, Hull #295 on eBay (see this thread). Jim is a marine surveyor and knows the previous owner so is well aware of the challenges to make this boat seaworthy again.

It's nice that this boat is staying on Narragansett Bay and will be resurrected rather than scrapped. We look forward to seeing Jim and his family out on the water when he finishes restoring hull #295.
