Dear Molly Sherwood:

Additional to Gordon's letter you can join the Alberg Great Lakes
Association (est 1965) in addition to the Chesapeake based A-30
Association.   The organizations have had twice annual team racing
between the two Associations for over 30 years alternating between
Toronto (Spring) and Annapolis (Fall).

The Great Lakes Association has a Handbook out on the A-30, I don't know
whether the Chesapeake guys do but probably.

Great Lakes Alberg Association contacts: 
Sam is the Commodore and Ann is the Editor, you can reach them at: 
Sam & Ann Malcolmson <alberg at ebsi.ca> or Rick Kent Treasurer
416-766-5063 or Membership Doug Stevens 416-979-9831 $25 CDN.

I hope this is helpful.

Fair winds,

John Birch, Sunstone KC-65

It is in need of quite a bit of work, including replacing sails, some fittings and woodwork and refinishing of the hull.  Before committing to the restoration, I am interested in finding out a little more about resources available to us.  I am particularly interested in suppliers of materials, parts, etc. and a resource for having our many questions answered.  We (and the boat) are located in Michigan.
