Commander pete,

Those Catalina and Hunter guys may be viewing you with pity and bemusement while you're in the yard making your classis shine, but remember that you get to view them with pity, bemusement, and perhaps a touch of disdain when you see their horrible-looking dime-a-dozen-with-absolutely-no-individuality Chlorox bottles out on the water as you slide by.

Owning an old boat is a labor of love, and worth every minute. As if those Hunters will be lovingly restored in 40 years...yeah, right.

Not that I have an opinion, mind you!

Your boat is gonna look great.
