monterey owners?

Hello, I’m new to the group, new to Cal ownership and new to sailing. I just picked up a Cal 25-2, in Monterey, Ca. I’m learning quite a bit about her by massaging her every surface. However, are there any other Cal 25 owners that would come have a look and point out things to me? I’m not looking for a survey, she’s mine, regardless. Or maybe I can come see yours? For example, there seems to be something missing from the bow..beneath the pulpit. I don’t know what is SUPPOSED to be there but something is missing. Also, rubrails. Is there a reasonable source for them? And I know I need to R-R the starboard jib sheet track and reseal. It leaks. I also was able to rebuild the starboard jib winch. Yuck. What a mess that was…WAS. Now, spins like new. Thanks for anything you can or choose to offer. I don’t have much to offer, yet. I’m new. Last weekend I learned what a jibe was…because I did it, unwillingly. “Hey. Duck. You’re jibing. Did you want to?” And..”Oh, I guess we’re going to tack now because you just came about. Was that intentional?” Yes, I was at the tiller. Bu my instructor/partner was letting me make those mistakes. : ) Thank you …tom --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
