How cool is that.
Around this time last year I came home towing a Catalina 22 circa 1970
thereabouts. Spent my spare time restoring her. My wife and I went to a boat
show, I went to purchase an outboard motor and she went to look at how to make
the inside of our lil C22 look like more than bare fiberglass.
I came home from the show with a nice motor attached to a 2006 Hunter 25 shoal
keel with trailer. Nice sailing lil boat.
She wants me to take her to the parade of homes to look at home interiors
next.... I am very worried.
Looks like a nice book and I am ordering a copy today. Thanks!
