Terry is right, Stu at Ellie's is really the guy you need. Call him and set up a Friday appointment. He'll show you everything he's doing and tell great stories while he's fixing it like new. Have him cut new shrouds while your there. Then pull the boat over to the Dunedin Causeway and camp Friday and Saturday with the beach rats on Island 4 and sail all night and all day and all night and all day. Bring beer, enough to last several days. You'll see LOTS of GCats and half the people you'll meet have owned one at some time. I think Dunedin is ground zero for GCats. Did I mention that you should bring beer?
