Subject: Hull #88 back in the water
Info: (6375 views) Posted: Sunday 9-9-18 10:11:06 PM
Greetings!

Hull #88 is now back in the water in Harbor Springs, MI. Most of the work was putting her back together with no instructions as every single part and piece was taken off the boat. Key items worked on were:

- Full re-rigging of mast halyards and most lines/sheets
- New compasses mounted in bulkhead
- New batteries and marine radio
- Greased the winches
- Serviced a 5 HP and 2 HP outboard motor
- New windex

Thanks to many of your who helped answer queries as we put it back together.

Photos of the boat in the water and under sail are up in the Hull #88 photo album. http://express27.org/photos/?gallery=130

More upgrades needed over the winter (GPS, instruments, back stay rigging, etc.) but my Dad wanted to get her in the water for the final few weeks of the season up there. Now I have to teach him how to sail a bit!

Ryan
