snipped experimental and doomed to fail drying out procedure

That we've removed any reasonable level of available WSMs from the hull,
following up with not only epoxy fairing but a very thick barrier coat,
we
feel, should put this blister issue to rest. Even if it doesn't, we're
not going there again in our lifetime :{))


Which lifetime will, unfortunately, be necessarily abbreviated, until an
unless you decide to spend at least half the time you spend on
maintenance,
learning how to sail. :-)

What's it been now? Six months on the hard? LOL! All that time wasted on
a
dilapidated POS. Sad! You and Lydia could have gotten jobs and used the
money earned to buy a decent, sail away condition yacht - not some
maintenance intensive, soon-to-blister-again Morgan which is about as
low-end a boat there is.

You don't know what a low end boat is. There was a Brit with a duffle
bag boat. He wanted to see San Francisco, so he sailed it there, and
the canvas never blistered, for that matter. Paid for 186 pounds when
he went through the Ditch. He wrote a book.

The ditch? You mean the Panama Canal? Then he was no sailor. Just another
wimp like Zac Sunderland, I'm afraid. We real sailors go 'round the Horn.
Anybody here remember Ed Gordon876? It is rumored that he sailed his Mac26X
around the Horn. I intend to sail around the world with the four capes to
port in my Coronado 27 one day soon.

We??? Since you include yourself in that statement can you enthrall us
with an account of your voyage "round the horn".

As I said previously, you do have some entertainment value, albeit
very little.

Cheers,
