Thanks for all the advice, gang! And all the offers to take it off my hands. LOL

I'm going to try and extricate it from the old basket without doing too much damage. There is nothing inside the basket, it has long since decomposed or fallen out as there's no bottom on this thing. A nice, new teak basket and a Superthrive cocktail seems to be answer.

Thanks again for all your input!!! I love this place!
