[C320-list] moving our boat advice

[wflowe3 at aim.com]

 Great advice from others. The things I remember being most helpful when we had our boat delivered were pictures taken from many angles of mainsheet rigging, in-mast rigging, traveler etc. Also removing shrouds and stays, coiling them loosely and labeling them made it much quicker to re-rig.  Same thing for all running rigging that you remove. You have an advantage because you are familiar with the boat and its rigging, I wasn't and photos and labels were most helpful.  Take care of the electronics disconnects inside the mast with taped baggies or something and make sure no wires get crimped when re-rigging.

I just finished winterizing last week and I envy you-all that don't have to do that chore.

Goo Luck on your move.

Hi, group,

This sounds very timely with at least two other people moving their boats 

recently.  Our boat will be loaded 3 weeks from today to make its way to a 

warmer climate.  We are interested in any and all advice about what to do before 



the move (mast, boom, etc.) and after the move.  Thanks in advance for all your 

help.
