My 31PC is Dead :(

The end of the winter was a tough one here in the northeast and in one of the storms in March, I had a tree (about 22" diameter) come down on my 31PC. It hit (actually bounced off) the port side gunwale and basically caved it in toward the cockpit. Several people, when they first looked at it, didn't think the damage was too bad but once you spent about 10 minutes looking around there was a lot of damage everywhere. Ultimately the insurance company totaled the boat.
The part that stinks is all the work I had done over the past few years getting everything upgraded or rebuilt and getting to know the boat in detail inside and out. Now I it's time to find another one and start the process over again.
Anyone know of someone selling a 34PC or 37PC that needs a little love?
Here are some pics of damage.

Yes, the top half of the tree broke once it hit the boat. You should have seen the boat stand that was under that portion of the boat!
 
Wow, that really is terrible. Sorry it happened. Best of luck in your search, there are not may 34 PCs in the Great Lakes regions, but there are a few 37s.
 
Insurance took the whole boat and is going to sell it at a salvage auction. They offered it to me but the price they wanted was way too high in my opinion.
 
I have been contemplating selling my 2001 31 PC in PA on the Delaware River but it sounds like you are ready to move up in size.
