Re: [Cal_Boats] photos link

That boat Cal 40 #96 is BEAUTIFUL~~~ Love the restoration as much as sailing!~!!! I want a Cal 40!!!!!! Shelley RIchards Cal 29 #154

We are selling sweat equity. The toe rails have to come off. The inside of the hull is being stripped. The new water tank and holding tank are going in over the next month. All offers are accepted and Cabrillo Marina, berth 29, B 37 will be open to all comers the next few weekends. It just looks good because you can't see inside. I'll post more photos as the work goes on. If I had known a year ago, what I know now I probably would have put it on a cradle in a vacant lot for 2 years. Still, it is pretty if you don't look too close.

Mike - To do this job right takes a lot more than putting it on a cradle for two years. Try five to six years on my 29. Try a lot of sweat equity and/or money. One of the important things I've learned from the rebuild process is the need to put together a project list with milestones and associated tasks. For each task, you also need the estimated resource requirements (money, skills, materials, parts, etc.), time requirements, and the estimated completion dates. I use Microsoft Project for this. When you started the project, that was the reason for suggesting that you needed to manage this just like a business project. John Harrison and others who have been through these really extensive rebuilds will support the complexity of this task. It just about gets down to disassembling and reassembling the entire boat. Aarrgghh. But in the end, it is more than worth it for the joy she will bring you and all who look at her. Keep up the great work. \Rog Cal 29+ #1 Swiss Navy Cal 2-30 #77 St. Lori's Comet _____ From: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com [mailto:Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Michael Kennedy Sent: Tuesday, November 22, 2005 8:21 PM To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Cal_Boats] photos link We are selling sweat equity.

Try a lot of sweat > equity and/or money. Just what I needed to encourage me as I set out this weekend to get the rest of the interior stripped and painted. I paid a small fortune to get a lot done by others. If I knew then what I know now I probably would have put it on a cradle and not painted it for a year. On the other hand, I have family members saying "Are we there yet ? Are we there yet ? Are we there yet ?" We will make it to Catalina next summer and it will be 90% complete by next spring. The final 10%, of course, will take years. > > > One of the important things I’ve learned from the rebuild process > is the need to put together a project list with milestones and > associated tasks.

If I were that organized, I would have known better. Happy Thanksgiving. I'll be the guy with the grinder and resin. Brief stop to eat turkey.
