[alberg30] good place for answers

[Thomas Parks]

From: "Thomas Parks" <parks24 at hotmail.com>

Last December (1997) we purchased an Alberg 30. When we bought it the 
surveyor called it a "project" boat. This was mainly due to the fact 
that the previous owner had started to remodel the cabin and never 
completed the job! In fact, he had started a lot of things and never 
finished them!! I found it really great tonight when I found a place 
where I can ask questions and get some answers from other owners, 
especially since I seem to have one of the few on Lake Michigan! In 
looking at the archive I see that some of my problems have already been 
dealt with. We had to have new toe rails first thing before we could 
sail over to Michigan from Milwaukee. And we have the 12 volt wiring 
redone now and a new rudder was already in place when we got the boat. 
That little plug in the bottom of the keel, I wish I had known about it 
before we lowered the boat into the water(the strap used to lift the 
boat had it covered) and almost sunk it! But it does all seem to be 
worthwhile, I love the way it sails and once I get it all refited it 
will be great.I look forward to asking your advice in the future!

Thanks,
Tom Parks
