Rachel, Just another comment on the workmanship at Amsterdam Shipyard G. DeVries-Lentsch, jr. No matter how far back into the T-L I got in rebuilding something, or removing the icebox and redoing the whole thing with 3 inches of insulation all around; it was all top quality materials - high quality marine plywood - and absolutely nothing but bronze wood screws in everything. The mast was keel stepped, and after 26 years of use, all the shrouds and swaged turnbuckles were in first class shape (I inspected continually for hairline cracks or any evidence of discoloration that shows that it's time for new ones) It was a high quality product built by a great shipyard, and designed by a genius. None of this later nonsense of 25 foot - sleeps 6 (without a bit of stowage space) and parties 15! The T-L slept four; had stowage for four; had wide decks (outboard shrouds) where you could carry a case of beer from the bow to the cockpit without learning the 7 1/2 degree sheeting angle ballet dance past the new and improved inboard shrouds on narrow decks, as was so common on more "modern" boats. .........and, for it's size, it was fast. I regularly beat a fellow Goose Island Cruising Club member who sailed a Pearson 365. Connie
