Old restored boats are the best, with kids!
These are some photos of my kids and I sailing our 1975 CD 28 after we completed a 1 year restoration. Her name is Stacy B. After my late Wife Stacy.

I second that.
Doing the restoration with them was pretty great too!

What method did you use to remove all the old bottom paint? Of course I'm addressing this to those two crew members

It is often said that love is the glue that holds a family together. I'm sure that a little bit of epoxy helps.
My children also, lost their mother way too early. What you are doing is wonderful, keep at it.
I believe that earns a "Bravo Zulu".
