G'day all,
I'm the new proud owner of this vessel and have just recently registered to this Forum.
I'll have lots of work to do on it, so I'll be seeking advice.

Thanks in advance.
Clav.

Hi Clav, welcome aboard. Look forward to hearing about your boat and your input to the forum.

Welcome Clav. Ask away mate, there is no such thing as a stupid question. We are all here to help. All the best, cheers

Hi Clav. I hope you enjoy your time with Windsong. I have a note that says the boat number could be 20, but have no idea where that gem of information came from. If the original mainsail is still with the boat, you will be able to confirm.

Here is picture of your Investigator from back in 2007.

Thanks Raya, Doesn't look like the boat has changed much since then. Only a little more deterioration. Just like me.
If no one objects, I'll use #20 and hopefully prove it to be correct.

Hi Clav. How many hinges on the front hatch mate. 1 or two ?

Just one in the middle.

Yes I thought that it would be. Not sure which sail number changed to the two hinges but the earlier boats only had the one Like yours. If anyone knows when the change was made, I would like to know.
Cheers

#107 formerly Mishka, now Minnow is the last of the single hinge jobs. #108 and on are doubles.

Mostly determined from Ray's records, plus recent pics of Minnow.
