You are correct. He passed away a little over 2 years ago. Property sold. New owner razed all buildings on the property. I had the pleasure of...
Saw it yesterday. Very impressed with the workspace and workmanship. Always been a fan of Tristen's channel. He is the Captain turned yacht...

40m Benetti didn't fare so well either...
