CAL 20 Project: Pics

Greets: Someone asked if I had pics of the 20 I bought last year . Got them finally sorted on the net. All pics are courtesy of Chris B who took these as the boat was being delivered and stored at his house while I cam down to get it as I could not get a trailer organized in time to meet MMI's timeline requirements. He even went so far as to pick up the boat, and then lend me his trailer to drive it back to where it sits. Cant ask for more....thank a million. http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/sredir?uname=chris.herrnberger&target=ALBUM&id=5504890181534348497&authkey=Gv1sRgCJTi4tftkL-uHQ&feat=email As she is going to be a project for a while still, she will be going under the shed with link posted previously. the good part is the plan for this boat has been set and I now know what to do with her and how to build her out now thanks to Mike sending me "the book". It will take some time, as the 29 has priority hence the shed. She will be relegated to the great lakes when done. -- /ch

Your photos made me grateful all over again at the good condition of my boat when I bought her. Luckily, the first owner was the kind of guy who took care of his boat, and the interim owners did not have her long enough to do any serious harm. My intent is that when the time comes for me to pass on my boat to somebody else--many years hence, if I'm lucky--they will acknowledge the good care she had while in my custody. One good thing about owning old houses & boats is that you realize that none of us actually "owns" anything. We're just temporary custodians, and we ought to view our period of custody as just part of the life of the object. Chris Campbell
