Hi Bob, I'm very sorry to hear that the mighty Ox has fallen!
I'm a fellow C&C33-I owner. I hope this isn't too crass, but if you have a bimni for Ox, I would be interested in it. Also, (and this is really a stretch), I have been thinking of rebuilding my rudder. If the boat goes to the dumpster, I'd be interested in the rudder. Let me know! Again, sorry to see another C&C 33-I leave the fleet!
