Thanks Jeff,

Your comments are always appreciated. I hope the faired keel will be all that is needed to keep the boat somewhat competitive, crew skills notwithstanding (my first sailboat!). I don''t have time to do it myself, so the next chore is finding the right boatyard.

P.S.-Someone suggested I mark my prop shaft to keep the folding prop horizontal when sailing, which would prevent the lower blade from unfolding if the prop stopped in the vertical position. Is this overkill for casual handicap racing?
