ok, proud new owner of a 1967 Cal 30, a few questions please

1. What's better? Keeping the dipsticks to measure fuel and water or installing guages? 2. How hard/expensive will it be to convert current lighting to LED? 3. We keep her in a hugh freshwater lake in Georgia, how concerned should I be about the drainage from the anchor locker as we anchor out most every time we sail and often overnight most weekends? Thats it for now, tons more to follow but please give me your tips and advice as you see fit. Bobby Centers "TRUE NORTH" 1967 Cal 30

Bobby, You have hit the nail. What do you need for where you sail your boat. I assume you are on Lake Lanier. You equip your boat for that place. I do the same for where I sail.
