More pictures and the story of the move later - got a ton of email and
other stuff to catch up on.

For now, the topsides were all redone, the interior was all redone with
new seat cushions and paint. The hull needs either paint or a good elbow
rubbing with Finesse-It. Don't know yet.

Rigging? Sails? Actually I expect a boat like this to benefit less from
spiffy well-cut new sails (as compared to a lighter faster & bouncier
boat) but it will still make a noticable difference.



Straight sloop rig with two sets of sails and three jibs - 120%, Storm
and standard which whose size escapes me at the moment.

Stout little double-ender and with lifelines, unusual for a boat that
size. Pretty little boat, I like the lines. I wouldn't expect it to be
overly fast, but I would expect you could keep sailing when others are
tied to the dock. Nice boat.


They're great little boats. A friend has a Nordica 21 which is very very
similar.



Identical actually except for the bow spirit.


Don't forget the forward cabin port window. Round on the Nordica,
rectangle on the Halman....plus a slightly different keel. ;-)
