Thank you.... I posted the pictures and a few more details in my prior posting.

For those of you who are Christians - may we recognize this most important foundation of our faith and the blessings in our life. To those who are not, may you recognize the sacrifices by those who have created and changed the way we live.

Make sure the Easter Bunny left jelly beans......

I created a new tiller and bulkhead adaptor for the compass. The tiller is made up from pieces of 3/16 laminated ash, glued in a clamping/forming fixture. There is a 4" rise over 42" length. It is tapered 1/2 inch from tiller to tip and rounded at each corner 1/2" too. It is sealed wi...

My wife and I talked about making such a trip, but dropping in at Two Rivers. The Green Bay side appears to have much nicer accommodations and beaches. If you have a bike, touring Washington Island is very nice - a throwback from busy and tourist attractions of Door County. I am not too familiar wit...

Hello, The keel on our C22 is pretty rusty. I am thinking about dropping it out of the boat on a cradle which I will make. It appears that I will need to jack up the boat on the trailer and then lower it on to the cradle and then wheel it out to be sand blasted. I presume that I will need to use epo...

I removed the sliding hatch off the boat and refinished the wood guides. Where can I find replacement plastic slides that prevent the glass from eating through the deck?

Thanks,

Hello,

We have a 76 C22. I have wet sanded the blue gelcoat with some positive results. However, the chalkiness remains. What is the best I can do to bring out an enduring shine and color short of painting? I need to clean up the deck and cockpit next.

Thanks in advance,

Hello, We bought a C22 with a 10HP long shaft on it. Unfortunately, the cover was off the engine, and exposed to 10 years worth of winters. At minimum, it needs an engine cover. I would like to get it running again. Are there parts available to conduct a light rebuild or renewal? I would like it rel...
