[alberg30] Chlorination of Ship's Fresh Water

[Jack Vanderloo]

Scott, I hope you'll haul your Electra to the Great Lakes soon and bump (figuratively!)
into many an Alberg 30 - just to hasten your decision to move up in the family.  My
medium term goal is the A-37; having moved up from an Alberg 22, I just can't shake that
love affair with the Alberg sheerline and, especially, that off-centre, angled view
across her stern quarter from an elevated dock.

Fair winds and following seas, as they say.  (And remember: US$1.00 is now equal to over
CDN$1.50!)

Cheers
Jack
