Good one Peter!  I am sure you got a steal.
  
  I post these things and wonder if anybody notices them.
  
  I am sure a lot of things will need replacing but the concept is all there and if ever there was a hull that suited that rig, the Contessa is it.  You know she will go to windward.
  
  I am sure members will enjoy hearing your progress.
  
  Regards,
  
  David.
