Fred Pomeranz just contacted us after a long absence. He is the fabricator who used the original design to create a mold for the AC rudder shoe. (To see one, check the Rudder Shoe thread in the Technical forum.) Fred reports, “Now that I'm retired I would like to explore this market again. ...

I believe some of you are having the same issue that I have found myself, which is Photobucket is no longer a free service and is now holding images ransom. If you have 40 bux a month to spend on their ****ty service, by all means, pay them to host your images, no judgement from me. However, I...
For the past several months we have been cleaning and sanding and patching and sewing. She is getting ready for her haul out and bottom job. We have her deck and topside paint ready when the weather permits. All of this just to save one of the boats I love. My only plan when I took over this...
