The only thing that I have on YouTube.

My laptop and external hard drive are loaded with pics and videos of the refit.
I spared no expense. All high quality materials were used and excellent workmanship.

Btw, that boat has hung out around Africa and crossed the pond a couple times.

Hello, endoftheroad, nice of you to share. However, at least for me, that Youtube wouldn't load, no idea why.

My wife and I divorced and she sold you that boat. I never met the new owners. My wife probably had almost zero information to provide for the new owners. She wasn't involved with the project.
A friend in Boot Key harbor texted me several months ago that he thinks he recognizes her in the mooring field. If you ever make it to Key West I have tons of info to share with you over a cup of coffee. Probably too much to type.

We would love to hear what you've done!
We were actually there when it was sold to a friend of ours. We never met your ex wife..she had someone at the yacht club meet us for the sale so we didn't hear anything at all. Our friend decided it wasn't big enough for him and we wanted it before he even purchased her so we were first on the list when he decided to sell. We were living on our Morgan 30 that we sailed from Chattanooga, TN down through the keys when we bought the H28 (and it is currently in Guatemala.) We sailed the Herreshoff to Labelle, FL before leaving the Keys on our Morgan. We've enjoyed many weekender sails with her and agree she sails beautifully! It would be awesome to catch up with you. We're home in Chattanooga for the holidays but hope to visit the Keys again soon.

I just saw the YouTube comment. I'll check that out. I'm excited to hear more information and would absolutely love to see photos you may have!

mfarmer0629 and endoftheroad - checking this forum remotely and will have access to my info when I arrive back home. I have a spec sheet from what appears to be from Staysail Yachts' sales info and an edited letter from a Staysail Yachts H28 owner's correspondence with a gentleman compiling a Staysail Yacht's H28 owners list. Will post when back home next week ... endoftheroad - I would enjoy seeing the info on your Staysail Yacht H28 refit. Would it be possible to 'Cloud' your info and provide us the link directly? Just an idea .... and BTW, sending both of you DMs

Hello! I know this is an older thread but I’m unsure how else to contact you. I’d love to see any photos you have of this particular boat! We are the current owners and I love to hear stories or history of her!
This is our secondary boat that we purchased in the end of 2017 and have already made many memories!
