I haven't tried sharing anything via Google+, so don't know if they force you to have a Google ID. Anyway, here are some pictures of the core work from Spring 2011 and a couple of pictures from chainplate reinforcement from the prior year. This year it's just the keel sump (pictures to be posted later).
I know this is not a particularly good advertisement for owning an older C&C, or trusting surveyors for that matter... https://plus.google.com/photos/101312290967793013089/albums/5832293047389624689 Tim Mojito 1984 C&C 35-3 Branford, CT On Fri, Jan 11, 2013 at 9:13 AM, dwight veinot <dwightvei...@hfx.eastlink.ca > wrote: > ** ** ** > > Tim**** > > ** ** > > Do you have any photos of the repair that you can share?
