Well, I sold my 1987 H23 yesterday so won't be lurking here too much anymore. I want to thank all of you for al the info that has been posted, discussed, advised, etc. I have found it very helpful and even more importantly, quite entertaining. I especially want to thank all the "experts" of the H23 and I apologize in advance if I've left anyone out. Thanks especially go to Jon B., Mike B., Mike Epp (sorry I never made it out to your regattas), Jim K., Peter S., and Ward N. Of course, it goes without mention, thanks to Crazy Dave who is somewhere on the water, anywhere in the US.I have already told the new owner about this site and have encouraged him to jump right in.Sail Fast -- Live SlowJoel
