I just purchased hull 474, a real project, out of the water for 12 years. I have under the V-berth what I calculate to be about a 34 Gal aluminum water tank. Is that standard? How long and where is the inside jib sheet track norfmally located? The keel seams to be built up out of bondo over the iron keel, fairly thick. Is that normal? It's all broken up and cracking off. I could used some ideas on that. Are stainless chain plates available for a decent price or do I have to make my own? I'm a firm believer in (with exceptions) if it ain't broke don't fix it, so to check on the keel bolts, just pull one to see if it's rusted bad, if not just put it back in, I don't think the boat has spent much time in the water. I'm probably looking at some new rigging and would like to find some precut and ready to go on at a decent price. What I really need is and old timer who has been around to talk to by phone or email. I offer the same on Balboa 26's, Pearson Tritons, Pearson 30 and Ranger 33's. Jim
