Congrats Bob! When I got mine everything had been stowed in the cabin - for about 20 years! One step at a time and you'll have a great boat. Then we can refer to you as the sailing bobber!
Bob, I know that there are others on this forum that took on a project seeing only what the sailboat would look like in the future... not what it looks like on hand. Myself as the poster boy of such... all I can say is GOOD FOR YOU AND WELCOME TO THE FORUM. Keep us informed on your progress and the more photos the better. It will help the rest of us to steal... opps... sorry... borrow some of your improvements.
