Niiiice!
So that water was coming right through the hull, like you mentioned in post 103 above??

There were two possible places, the volcano or that area of cracks on the hull just below the waterline. Since I repaired both I was hopeful this would be the outcome. Very satisfying to see it dry.Niiiice!

I am from Greentown, Indiana originally. My wife was raised in Purcell. We met in Indiana about thirty years ago. We moved out here about four years ago to take care of her parents.You have done a great job on your boat!
I noticed you live in Purcell. I was raised there, corner of N 4th and Harrison.
Couple of quick questions (apologies if I missed the answers somewhere in the threads):Thank you so much for the incredible posts! Back in September we purchased a Catalina 22 (Hull No. 6086), and your transformation is definitely an inspiration. Your to-do list also looks very familiar.

Thanks again, and enjoy the sailing!
- What size Tohatsu did you get? We're thinking about the 6HP SailPro. Did you hook up the electrical charging system and, if so, how's it working for you?
- Where did you locate plans for your gin pole?
- How did you secure the battery box to the hull in the bilge?
- Your cushions look awesome. Where did you find them?
Not yet. Will be working on it sometime around February I hope. I still have a number things to do to mine too. I took some short cuts so I could try it out on the water before the end of the season this year. Plus I have some other things to take care of besides the boat that need my attention. I'll be putting work the boat on hold until those things are dealt with. So what area are you in I sail at Lake Thunderbird mostly but plan to sail all around the state eventually.Daydreamer,
Did you ever get to work on your keel? I live in Oklahoma also and would love to meet up, I am new to sailing and a new owner of a 76. I have a lot of updates to do like replace the old mast step and so on.
I'm still learning the area. I've put in on the north side at the 108th St. ramp and the 132nd St. ramp. Next year I'm going to look into a membership at the sailing club. Maybe get a slip.Daydreamer I load and unload at Clear Bay Area off of HWY 9 when I go to Thunderbird. Where do you launch from?
That'd be great do you have a sail number? Mine is 6616.Ok, I know where you put in at. Maybe we can catch up on the water.
Yes I do sir, it is #6125.That'd be great do you have a sail number? Mine is 6616.
Yeah, I've got my boat all packed up for the winter but I could get the table out. We could meet somewhere. How far are you from Purcell?Daydreamer,
Do you think there is a chance I can meet up with you and trace the shape of your dinette table on a piece of cardboard? I bought mine without one.
