And once again an Alberg claims yet another casualty.

I'm not surprised.

Re: Apparently I'm not meant to have a boat...

I should add to Jimgo - we found it really fun and rewarding to do the work ourselves. It was fun to learn to do everything as we went. It's not for everyone, but it can be surprising to see what you...

Re: Apparently I'm not meant to have a boat...

I know where you're coming from, and you're right. If you're keeping the boat for sure, might as well build her to your desire (whether through sweat equity or financially, or both). It makes all the...

Re: Apparently I'm not meant to have a boat...

Ah, I see you've heard of it..



Nice. I almost went with the Cape Horn but decided against it in the end due to it sucking up the lazzerette space with it's mechanics (I know Yves makes a model...

Re: Apparently I'm not meant to have a boat...

Atlantic could haul my Alberg, I don't see why it couldn't haul you out as well. As far as the work goes, if you're looking for someone to do the work, I know the guy that has a shop at Atlantic...

Huh, I used to be on the Magothy... have you considered Atlantic Marina to haul and work at?

Well, either way I hope it works out for you :)

Post some pics of the haul out when it happens?

Re: Apparently I'm not meant to have a boat...

My view on these matters is biased. It's easy to waste a lot of money and time on an old boat because you love the boat.

I really meant to express that one should try to take a critical eye when...

Re: Apparently I'm not meant to have a boat...

Sorry to hear it, bummer.

My view is that it's a bad idea to get sentimental with boats, I'd take the opportunity to move on.

New bottom coating perhaps?

I ran across this, and naturally it made me wonder how well it would repel bottom growth. I bet it would really benefit racers as well. Neat stuff, it'd be sweet if it could work with no more...

Re: Why is this a bad idea?

I like it, there is no reason it wouldn't work in your application. The only drawback would be the peanut gallery on the water harumphing at your DIY solution and straying from the norm.

Re: Living on Island Time...

I think a proper full enclosure done right is an asset by leaps and bounds. Canvas is an art, and a good canvas man will design the enclosure to be logical for use. My dad was in that business for...

Re: What kind of paint for my boat? Motor mount

Probably right. It does look small.

Re: What kind of paint for my boat? Motor mount

Brightside for the hull will be fine. You'll need to roll a "freshen up" coat on each season (or two). It'll look great if done right, but it will scratch easily (but can easily be touched up).

Why no Sailnet swag?

Correct me if I'm missing something here - but I want a T-shirt, a hat, and sticker for my car already. I'd love to publicly rep Sailnet, and I'm willing to buy a shirt and some stickers.
