Identical boat to yours I believe, hull 60/65, 1984, sloop rig. It was shipped to New England in 1985 and has had basically one very knowledgeable owner who describes himself as a luddite. Very light usage, stored each winter with mast down, much of the equipment is original, all in excellent working condition. I just put it into winter storage up here and am in the planning stage on a potential number of projects over the winter. For example it has and “Ice box” no refrigeration, two anchors no windless, two house and one start lead acid batteries charged off the alternator, no solar or wind, diesel heater but no AC, Monitor windvane, Critindon head, bronze overboards. It would be great to talk to you about your experiences maintaining and upgrading your boat, also what you’ve learned sailing it. Thanks, Mike
