I have a pre 71 ( I have figured this out) I am not sure on the exact # yet.. I have to check the plate if I can find it.
I sailed it for the first time this past weekend. It is a family boat that was passed to us. MOST of the lines need replacing.. but the spars are in good shape as well as the sail and all rings. Dagger and Rudder are good.. I have almost no deck fittings.. but the Traveller?? is in good shape.
My sheet line, outhauls and Halyard needs replacing. Can someone give me the SPECS on the line dimensions?
Finally, after reading quite a bit in the last few hours.. I have found that this hull is supposed to weigh between 120 - 140 lbs... well I can tell you this hull is got to be close to double that or more.. would be my guess.. anyway.. lets assume its heavy..
I figured out there is a drain plug.. just tonight after reading.. and I can open that.. but other than that?? Anything I can do to try and "dry" it out? Are early ALCOURT hulls heavier than i have been reading?
Thanks
James
