I'm Back!

[heyyou]

This is BigJohn of HopeFloats. I have been away from my Bristol 40 for 5 years, and am now in the middle of a refit. I had arthritis in both hips could not sail any longer (mostly just could not walk due to the pain and no mobility). Last summer I had both hips replaced with brandie new ones. Once my rehab is over I'll be out sailing again. yea!!! Righg now I'm in Deltaville Va. putting Hopefloats and me back into cruising shape. So just sayin hey, and I'm back. Peace all....out

Thanks everyone! It's good to be back. My little 4-108 engine should be put back in this week a little welding to the bimini frame and pushpit. Test out the dc systems and then back in the water. First time in well 5 very long years. I'm stoked! Peace all....out
