I am going to make it, somehow (we have a plan) I made it through another summer (2nd. one) with my 85C30 sitting in my Boat Barn. We are on a mission to work straight through for 5 years (till i'm 55) and then take off for a year + or - and go to, and down the ICW to her sisters in St. Augustine and back. Maybe next fall we will close the business (dog boarding & Grooming) for a month and just sail lake Michigan and put her back in the barn. I am trying to cycle the batteries a few times a year and next spring I will fire the engine for the first time in 2-1/2 years. I properly preserved all systems for long term storage and I am not worried about anything. It is actuall clean and dry in my monster garage, it is just getting younger and drier as it sits. We really miss her but we get out 1 or 2 time a year with some friends with a C34 and a couple times in a fishing boat.
I even worked at West Marine the last summer she was in the water, so I replaced every line, dock and rigging, every block and all tackle and a new furler too.
Anyone on the same schedule as us? Or been there, done that?
I couldnn't stand to see the C30 forum empty, so I dreamed up a post.
