I remember my dad telling me a story about how when Elvis, who was our neighbor, gave my dad the boat to auction off. He asked the painter how much to paint her and he replied $15,000 so my dad said, well just paint the side the people will see. Of course he was just kidding. Elvis was just making too much money so he bought the boat and donated it to my dads hospital.<br />C.
