Windfall is my 1980 mirage 5.5 I bought a few months back. I found her on marketplace, she had been in a field behind a barn for many years. I have been cleaning, sanding, amd truing to locate the parts I need to put her back at 100%. Her teak grab rails and companionway have been refinished now and there is a new breaker panel, I will soon be rewiring her. Hull is sanded to 320 so far. I am neck deep into this and we have high hopes Barton marine will sponsor us. We want to spread and educate the sailing life. You can follow us on YouTube "repairing windfall, a journey back to the water" and on fb "sv windfall" and "sv wind fall". There is a group for owners as well " mirage 5.5 owners" come join us and join the fun

This is a project I work on and am planning to bring 2 more soon. One will be a power boat but what the heck right? 1969 CC commander 27' I will have to repower this classic boat but am wishing it were here right now.
