Strip: How old is it?

Some time ago some one asked "what does an old stripper look like?" Friday morning at my favorite watering hole up drives a SUV with a very dark stripper on top. I'm afraid I may have startled him a little with my enthusiasm, but I got to look at the boat pretty close. He says he had refinished it not once but twice in the past seven or eight years. He was very hard on it.

This boat was beautiful. As I said the WRC was very dark. It had a real nice warm feeling to it. The battle scars only enhanced the character of the boat. So if I may give my .02$ worth. If the new strippers are beautiful, the old strippers are even more incredibly hansom!

P.S. I beleave he said it was an Outer Island. It had a very low rear deck.
