Two weeks ago I went to Clear Lake Marine Center to have some major refits. Got a new bottom job, replaced all through hull fittings and valves. Got a new depth meter and knot indicator, fixed all the cracks in the fiberglass and reset some loose stanchions. Then I got completely new running rigging and new lifelines installed. Best of all, a new USCG approved marine sanitation device. Hadn't had that replaced since it was originally installed in 1969.
Next, I will have the mast stepped down and inspected, and I will have all the wiring replaced entirely. I will install a new tri-light beacon on top of the mast, along with a new anemometer and apparent wind display. Then, its an all new paint job on the topside, and new teak handles and doors!
Pretty soon, I'll be better than new!!
