Wow! Beautiful. I really like the layout and the second door on the
port side. Obviously a much bigger boat. What year is it? It looks
brand new.
====================================

Thanks. It was built in 1981, and yes, having a door on each side of
the main cabin is very convenient. The starboard cabin door is right
next to the lower helm which is very nice for single handed docking.

It had a new Awlgrip paint job on it when we bought it, and that is
holding up well. The external wood took a beating over the summer
however and I've got to get to work on that soon. We just finished
replacing one of the generators, as well as new props, bottom paint,
shafts and cutlass bearings. The next big projects are to replace the
fuel tanks, overhaul the refrigeration/freezer system, get a new SSB
radio, maybe a second radar, and get the autopilot working. The fun
never stops.

We're going to take it north next spring after I retire, and live on
it for the summer while we cruise all of our old favorites in the
north east.
