Default AUCTION October 18th. Grant Hull

I have just been advised of a Grant Hull to be Auctioned next Friday at Tostaree between Lakes Entrance and Orbost, Vic. Australia.

I tried to buy this one many years ago when I was a much younger man but to no avail.

It no longer has the crane on it but hasn't changed much from the attached
photo.

I am attaching both the current advertisement and a photo I took in 1968.

It would be a shame to see the scrappy get it but I am not able to rescue it nowadays.

Regards Rick.

Sorry Ryan, I haven't heard yet.

I hope to find out tomorrow. I'll be in town with time on my hands.

Luke R. was more than interested and was phone bidding I believe. I haven't heard from him yet to let me know how he went. Fingers crossed for him.

Regards Rick.
