I have so far pulled out 42 old screws that were rusting through the

finger plane that will remove a very thin layer at a time. Am almost
ready to start filling the holes in the bottom and re-glass the chine
joint.


Then you can sail it to Bimini.


It couldnt carry all the water I need to drink. However there is a
couple that has sailed a 15' sailboat (homebuilt) over 20 times.
