<P>Randy,</P>
<P>I wouldn't worry about jacking up the beam. Do it a little at a time. I
have never seen anyone crack or break anything and this proceedure has been
done to dozens of boats. I have a template that is in 1/4" plywood that was
made by Washington Aluminum Products in Baltimore. They also have a CAD
drawing because they machine cut these, but they didn't give me a copy of the
file and I really wouldn't expect them to since they created it. You might
want to call Kirk at Washington Aluminum. If you want I'll send you the
plywood template, I'll probably need to cut it up so I could ship it. Let me
know.<BR><BR>Mike Lehman </P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Date: Mon, 9 Sep 2002 20:04:05 -0400
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>1.) I have checked the sources for the deck beam and current price
is approx. $300. I have several friends with machine shops and would like to
price through them - does anyone have the pattern or would someone like to
sketch and measure theirs for future use of the group and myself - I could
draw up machine drawings suitable for fabrication. Also for those who have
done this I am a little nervous about jacking the existing beam up as I don't
want to damage the hull --down-- my deckbeam is only sagging but the rigging
is loose and I don't want things to get worse -- I will have the mast off from
transport and would like to do before restepping-- ? am wondering if having
set like this for a long period of time if it wouldn't have taken a set in the
current position making it hard to jack back into position?
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>2.) I have seen reference to a maintenance manual that is out of
print or something - would anyone be interseted in making a copy or putting it
up on a site for general reference?
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>3.) I purchased Hull #385 last summer and then moved - tried to
sell but couldn't get a far price so I will be bring her to Miami to overhaul
(everything)--- I have been following public list with great interest -
especially various sources and will be putting together a notebook of the same
as well as notes and drawings of the effort in as close to scaled drawings as
is possible -- I have taken the brochure sketches and put them in Autocad and
will be adding to the layers as I go and would like to incorporate as many of
the original drawings as possible like the electrical drawing only outlining
it in ACAD to clean up and modify to present day. Any sketches, drawing,
scribles would be appreciated -- as I go through the various systems-
electrical-rigging-deck-hull-engine-sails-etc----- I intend to try and
condense some of the best of the public list for a new "Care and Feeding /
Rebirth" maintenance manual - this will include a resource appendix - drawings
-how t! o for each!
<DIV></DIV>of the subsystems specifically for the Alberg. I would also like to
put together a directory of ownership for each hull# with a picture of each if
possible----
<DIV></DIV>Ambitious I know but what the heck - everyone needs a hobby !
<DIV></DIV>Any ideas or advise are welcome ---I look forward to the project
and hearing from all of the Association-
<DIV></DIV>Thanks in advance
