Just got around to installing all the neoprene on the boat....i guess now its officially finished!

I *might* add a second trapeze over the winter, and i think I'm going to epoxy the hulls together, just to get it a *little* stiffer.

Other than that, my main is being sent off to sailcare to get re-resined and have the stains taken out, and a new silver jib might be coming my way....

All in all, a great restoration! Took about a year, but with winds at the lake where I am right now, it is WELL worth it!

Thanks for all the help from here! Tons of information helped me out along the way. SurfCity was there with parts (as well as a dealer in Savannah) and every one else with the knowledge!
