| Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

If rooten into the glass tapes, probably want to replace these longitudinal stringers. Relatively inexpensive/knowledgaable repair vs boat yard from Rufus Shoenberg; [email protected]

:: I'm having some problems with the casework on the
:: interior of the boat - specifically where the vertical
:: plywood panels in the cabin meet the lower part of the
:: hull. The worst are the panels running fore and aft
:: underneath the main cabin settees/nav station/sink
:: cabinet area. The plywood has started to degrade due to
:: standing water in one of its previous lives. Has anyone
:: ever rebuilt this casework? So far, the options I am
:: considering are 1) removing the worst panels and
:: glassing in new,
:: 2) using epoxy resin to "rebuild" some of the areas, or
:: 3) cutting out the damaged wood and sistering new lower
:: portions to the existing uppers.
::
:: I'll probably wait until the weather is drier to start
:: on this work. Any thoughts on restoring/rebuilding?

:: Thanks, Maryann
