Hi,
I need help (someone's time and a Catalina 22 Fixed Keel trailer) to move a great DONATED Catalina 22 Fixed Keel boat from Lake Traviss @ Mansfield Dam to Lake Marble Falls boat ramp.
This boat was donated to my nonprofit, The Play Institute, so that we can start a sailing program for deserving area kids who for different economic, emotional, or physical challenges would otherwise not have this opportunity.
What I need is about a half day of someone's time, trailer, and knowledge to help me get this boat in Lake Marble Falls safely.
I know....Lake Marble Falls???
Well, there is a very good reason why we are putting the sailboat on this riverine, narrow lake and I'll share that with anyone interested in helping us...everyone else will have to wait for our christening and official launch.
Yes we are "for real" (tax-exempt number: 75-2861914) so please no drive-by cynics or professional nay sayers, we really could use some help here for what could be a great kids' program.
I will, however, if needed send you a copy of our tax-exempt letter, press clippings, and personal references and testimonials.
I can buy the volunteer(s) lunch and certainly pay for mileage to and from. The key issues here are the (1) trailer for Catalina 22 (2) mast stepping the boat (3) getting boat out of Lake Travis (4) getting boat into Lake Marble Falls.
Our website is www.prayermama.org and my number is 214.826.7772.
I could really use some help here as the donor would like to have the boat out of his slip by month's end.
Thanks in advance for any help!
