[Public-List] Restoration of Hull #574 complete

[Peter Milley]

Thanks Jacques,
Look forward to seeing you. My other boat "Privateer" is at Portsmouth
Olympic Harbour on the wall by the Olympic Statue as you enter the Harbour
not far from you. In fact I think your Alberg was tied up near my friend's
Comanche 43 ( Sparksman Stevens/Chris Craft) for a few days last summer at
POH.
Peter
