Welcome to new member Andy Neal
Andy lives in Chicago and sails from Northport, Michigan, on Lake Michigan’s Grand Traverse Bay.
He is looking to downsize and is intending to build a replacement for his 1972 Hallberg-Rassy 35 foot sloop.
Here are Andy's own words:
"I am very interested in both the CC19 and her larger sister, the Cape Henry 21, and have purchased study plans for both from Dudley Dix. Although I have decent woodworking skills, I will be building at least one or two smaller boats before taking on anything as substantial as either of these designs in order to make sure that it will be as satisfying and rewarding as I hope. But, it’s never too soon to start planning (aka dreaming). "
We all wish Andy well with his project. I am sure he will find help and advice available when he needs it.
