Hi,
There are a few things I would like to do to complete my 1978 Chrysler 26 restoration. Here is a video I made of the work thus far.

The work I would like to do at the end of the season if to do the following:

1. Take off the old ablative paint and repaint the bottom
2. Replace the swing keel cable.
3. Replace the swing keel pivot point hinge.

Are these things I should get done at a shipyard? Anyone have recommendations for one in the Erie PA area? I have the boat on a trailer and cannot get to the swing keel cable very easily.

Thanks!
