When I got my first boat in 1966 I noticed that all the boat bottoms were painted green or blue. So I painted my boat bottom green using green house paint. As the season wore on I noticed the boat getting slower and slower. When I pulled it out at the end of the season the bottom looked like a nest of seaweed, barnacles and mussels. Boat must have gained 100 pounds. It was a beautiful Lyman Lapstrake. Jerry J&J, C&C 27 V.

My first boat was a 23 footer and I installed cabin lamps on bulkhead in vee berth. I used old appliance electric lamp cord (off an old household lamp) because I had no idea what should be used. I am certain the buyer of that boat likely cursed at the PO when his cabin lights ceased functioning and he had to rewire. If we were all born with 20 years of boat ownership experience I am certain there would be less boneheaded updates performed on these venerable old antiques we sail in … Mike From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Jim Watts via CnC-List Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2014 11:14 PM To: Bill Coleman; 1 CnC List Subject: Re: Stus-List C&C 33-I Spreaders? Why are so many former owners idiots? What is it with these people? I assume the folks who have bought my boats have exactly the same questions.
