CD 28 Buliders Plate from Bristol Bronze Installed!

Post by Lyn Heiges »

I received my Builders Plate for CD28 MOON CHILD on Friday and installed it while under sail (with autopilot at the helm). She is a beauty! The holes matched the original plastic plate

Upon arrival at the St. Petersburg Yacht Club, where I had reserved a slip next to my old CD27 GUILLEMOT, I compared the bronze plate with the one which I had Cape Dory make 15+ years ago for the old boat. The new one is a little sharper in detail due to the investment casting procedure used by Bristol Bronze and is as fine or better in quality! Obviously, I am VERY PLEASED with the new plate and I am glad that we have this source of supply.

Lyn,

We finally got Parfait's builder's plate installed on Saturday. As you say, they look great. Thanks Roger!
