Waiting on new sails to come in on the CD 28, the CD 25 is ready to go. The CD 28 is hull #45 (1975) and the CD 25 is hull 676 (1979). Currently the CD 28 is on the hard for a week, getting three new sea cocks, bottom paint, waxed, teak refinished, new stainless lifelines without vinyl coating, and new standing rigging. This will complete her two year complete refit, from a new Beta Marine diesel, new electrical systems, new electronics (VHF, AIS, wheel pilot, dual plotters, dual depth gauges, stereo), LED lighting, new interior cushions, new air conditioning system, new head/ plumbing, new deck hardware, 4 stainless self tailing winches, running rigging, and all new dodger/bimini enclosure.

That's a lot of work. Must be nice to be so near completion.
What necessitated the seacock replacements? Were they Wilcox Crittenden back in the 70's?

They are Spartan, just tired of rebuilding them.

Here they are under sail. The photo of the 25 was from last weekend and the 28 was from September.
