Me again. Another question that goes in some forum, but I'm not sure which, so I'll try here.
In my unending quest to find an affordable, mint condition E-35/II , I was wandering in a local yard a few months back and found one. I went home and looked her up on the documentation database, and, well, as one could expect, I found the owner name/address. Well, I said "neat" and left it at that. She was not obviously for sale, but all boats (and houses) are for sale for the right price and at the right time.
Fast forward. I want to contact them to see if they have any interest in selling. So, I went back on line, tried to look them up again, and no joy. I even went back and confirmed the name. This tells me that either the boat is sold and renamed (making me to late), or they've let the documentation lapse (meaning that they are ripe for an unsolicited offer!
So, the question -- does anyone know how to look up OLD information on a boat? I have the name, the owner's city (both on the boat, and what I recall the mailing address was) and I can get the HIN. Someone with an old copy of the database would be perfect.
Thanks
Harry
