So there is no snow here in VA yet, although my son in Golden CO has been skiing a couple times. I have a page worth of projects on my 23 that will not be done this winter but you can check the progress on the center board, rudder and bottom job at http://picasaweb.google.com/110938325409185510143/M23?authkey=Gv1sRgCJqUgPz3.... Lots to do. Took the trailer to a trailer care shop today to get it evaluated. I don't think the brakes have worked since 1993. I am epoxying the rudder although last nights experience is that epoxy does not like to be put on a vertical surface! I am following Sean's five coats of clear epoxy then varnish coats. Looks very pretty except for all the runs. Sand sand sand. Question for the group is there are water stains on the teak in the cabin in various places. How is the best way to get rid of these? I have been oiling the teak with tung and teak oil but that does not seem to get rid of the lighter water stains in the teak. Thanks Robbin
