How's this for finding a classic hiding in an old barn for 25 years...

A lot of work there, but one has to wonder why it was stored 25 years ago. If it was well kept for those first 27 years, it might be worth it... maybe.

That is actually... very interesting. Probably a good thing I’m already occupied. I wonder how they inserted the boat and cradle into the storage unit?

...apropos of whatever....

If anyone is *really* interested, I can provide email contact info for someone who did a 100% restoration on a sister ship. Quite a project! Result is a lovely classic King design Ericson 30-1, glowing in an all-over coat of LPU paint.

Don't think so. He is a Portland sailor and a member of our yacht club.
