Thanks for the reply SWG. Appreciate the comments on the babystay and the scenario you describe is one we may well need it for.
Regarding the BOD, we’d definitely be interested. I’ve talked to CCI regarding their carbon BOD and the price they are quoting actually very reasonable for carbon-work we’re getting way over our budget (I know, welcome to sailboat ownership). I was wondering if “The Source” owner had cad files for what they had done. But regardless, would love to talk about it. What’s the best way to connect? It doesn’t look like the forums support direct messages but maybe I haven’t figured it out.
No this isn’t the “Hot Mess” boat although we loved watching their video. We bought our from a team (and great group of humans), Lagopus, out of North Vancouver. Here’s their story from last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGVaTB4Ik10
And I should have stated, we’re (mostly) located in Seattle and would love to connect with any local Olson 30 owners/crew.
