Re: [Cal_Boats] Great sail over the weekend

Rog, I am so jealous...boat is hauled, winterized and shrink wrapped...sigh. Snow coming Thursday, so they say. Mark Mark & Terry Rogers Mobile Marine Electrical Services, Inc. "Seirenia" 1966 Cal 36

Well, I was up at the boat grinding paint off the interior of the hull in the pilot berth while gorgeous sunshine beat down on the deck. Someday this will all be over and I'll go sailing. Can't see the light at the end of the tunnel yet, though. I did find a bad leak under the toe rail up in the v-berth this weekend. More fun. I'll have to take the toe-rail off, I guess. It was always on the to-do list but not this soon. If the boat were winterized and under 3 feet of snow, I'd be sitting by the fire reading. Count your blessings.

I drove out to the boat yesterday to brush a foot of snow off the cover. There is still one boat out on a mooring--one of the yard guys owns her and has been too busy to get her in. The iceboat club had their boats set up in a parking lot on Saturday, trying to attract new folks. I've got my hand in a cast after surgery to correct last winter's iceboat capsize injury, and aiming to have it off in time for sailing on the ice (if we are blessed with cooperative weather). Rog is lucky to have a good boat, a sailing wife, and the kind of disposition that keeps both of 'em happy in the boat. Not all people can do that. Chris Campbell

Mike, We were out of the water for four years during our refit...been there. The toe rail is the only exterior item we have not done. I hope to get another few years from it before that project. Best-Mark Mark & Terry Rogers Mobile Marine Electrical Services, Inc. "Seirenia" 1966 Cal 36

Chris-Like Rog, I am also blessed with a sailing wife (who would fight me for the boat if we ever split up) and a great boat. Even our three Tibetan Terriers get exited when we pull into the yacht club. Plus, I work in the marine business-now, if only I can get to the point of making enough to support some longer term cruising...3 weeks just isn't nearly enough.

The materials for shrink wrap are actualy quite resonable. I wrapped my CAL 35 this fall for a cost of about $150. I split the 100 ft shrink wrap role with anouth person. The shrink wrap was about $100 and the 4" tape & door were less than $50. I purchased it form dr-shrink on the web. It was not that hard to do. A friend in the yard had purchased an ice melt gun for $35 and it worked well. The yard would have charged $$475 to cover my boat -David --- In Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com, "r good" <my1972ih@h...> wrote: > > curious about access and cost of shrink wrap for sailboa, mast up.
