[Alberg30] Electronic Ignition

[Gord Laco]

Hello -

I'm thinking about the same thing... if you have points, you really should
have them replaced periodically and that will make them very reliable.
Electronic ignition goes on and on, then if it is going to die (it might
never) it just dies one day.  I don;t know what to do, so have just gone on
serviceing the points every second year.

If you are in Oakville, call Klacko Spars and talk to James.  (Say hi from
me)  He knows your boat well and is an affordable craftsman.

> Anyone any views and please bear in mind I am totally ignorant

> 2) I have wooden spreaders and need to replace with metal ones.
> Any model favoured?
