Hi Mark and Roberta, How do you like that nice big M23 compared to the M17? I just completed refinishing my nice mahagony 7ft rudder for my M23. I stripped the old bottom paint, sanded, applied 3 coats of System 3 epoxy, and will follow with Micron CSC. The top half is varnished. I was seeing evidence of previous repairs coming un-done and the possibility of water leaching into the wood. The rudder sits in the water for 6 to 7 months here in Minnesoooota. I do raise it while the boooot is slipped. Later, Bones ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

Bones: There was a light blue M23 at Hooper's about a month ago. Who does that belong to? First time I've seen one up close, out of the water. Compared to the M17, they are palatial! Howard On 5/5/04 10:45 PM, "bownez@juno.com" <bownez@juno.com> wrote:
