Notes:
As of May 2006 this large item has not been picked up from the John Vavalis residence because he does not answer his phone...he lives out Engineer's Cutoff and is in poor health. The boat is some 5 or 6 feet long. Donor paid taxes on Vavalis property a while ago, and got ownership of the model in return. Darlene is the name of the donor's daughter (deceased) and John Vavalis' ex—wife.
