I have an interesting predicament, which other boat nuts around here
might share.  And, I am curious to hear your feedback.

As many of you know, I spent a couple years (mostly enjoyment)
building a Bolger Topaz Spyder.  I got it 98% complete, never
launched.  The biggest piece of work remaining, really the only
significant piece of unfinished work is the electrical work which is
primarily the installation of the console gauges of the Honda 90
outboard.http://www.hallman.org/TopazSpyder/Anyway, I got laid off during the 2009 recession for a few months.  I
got hired back and my life is now great, but a zillion other projects
are lined up and truth be told my Spyder is languishing sitting on
some pavement in a nearby boatyard.

I would love to finish her and see her in action, but then again, I
have tons of other things to do with my time.

The boat yard called yesterday and said they want use that space for
other things and starting October 1st, I need to find another boat
yard.

So, I am torn, move her to another boat yard, or sell her.

What are your thoughts about this dilemma?
