Doug,



Congratulations on your purchase. I stopped by Hi Tempo on my way home last night from the lake to buy a pop out of their machine, and admired your boat after closing time. It looks like it's in great shape.



I would say that the tramp on that boat could use quite a bit of tightening. Maybe some day you could even go with a mesh tramp. The cleaning suggestions here all seem like good ones. Or better yet, have Hi Tempo do it for you! [Linked Image]



Looks like you've got plenty of room for lots of your favorite drink on board that boat. I was thinking it would make a great distance racer with all that storage.



Sail fast,



Tim Johnson
