Repairs & Upgrades
Prior to my ownership, the mast step had been replaced and underwater lights installed. Additional hull repairs had also been made. I have since installed a rebuilt engine, upgraded the inverter/charger and replaced the autopilot compass.

The Before
Outside of needing to be repainted, the exterior deck and hull were in good shape. The interior, however, over the years had fallen into disrepair. This is where I will be spending the bulk of my time, updating her appearance and design and replacing old systems and appliances.
