Re: Bilge Repairs required

I have contacted the previous owner who had the boat a long time, he states that this boat never had a Centreboard. He states that some of the Investigators were made differently and 'Christy' was one of only a few made with CB.
That brings a bit of peace of mind, knowing all is correct in the keel. My plan Yara, is to get her looking good and in the water as soon as I can. She is in good nick, just been sat outside doing nothing for over 2 years, due to the previous owners health issues. The inside is ready for painting (except Bilge!), I have removed and re-sat the portlights, as two were leaking to rain. I will then painting the deck and hull, remove and replace fittings and she should be good (touch wood)!
