Bill,

I believe you will remember fondly those days when you had a fiberglass boat and had time to do other things than work on the boat.

.....oh...

If you get a chance, ask Roger DeVore (11 meter owner)

1stmatemarine@bellsouth.net

about his experiences with a similar sized wooden Trojan.

Well, best of luck.
