Got a plastic classic?

[Don C L]

Are you sailing, refitting or dreaming of a beautiful, older, boat from the years of CCA rule (and post CCA), hand laid-up hulls, long or early fin keels; you know, the boats some folks think we are crazy to spend so much on? Do you perk up when you hear names like Alberg, Rhodes, Morgan, Sparkman and Stephens, Tripp and others? Do you stop on listings of Cape Dories, Bristols, Columbias, Tartans, Morgans and Pearsons and others to see which year they are? Want to share tips on refitting, repairing and sailing these great boats? There's a social group for that. After tracking through a number of us posting here about our endeavors I thought we might do well to have a place where the info is gathered up and easier to find. Cheers!
