Alberg 30 Restoration: Another ladder update
http://alberg30129.blogspot.com/2015/03/another-ladder-update.html
Tuesday, March 10, 2015. Finally, it's March! Good deal all around. They also fit and did the job! I also refinished the motor cover. I skinned the original with 3 mil Ocume. I'll varnish everything when I can get outside. March 11, 2015 at 3:52 PM. Now you need a nice Persian rug for the cockpit sole! March 11, 2015 at 7:51 PM. Actually, I am looking for a rug for the sole. Smart ass. March 12, 2015 at 7:38 PM. I read you like a book! March 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM. March 12, 2015 at 10:09 PM.

Alberg 30 Restoration: November 2014
http://alberg30129.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2014. Last post for 2014. We decided to change marinas for next season and the new marina gave us a deal that we could not refuse so we moved the boat. Easy trip from one side of the bay bridge to the other. We were on the Magothy river and now we changed to Whitehall creek. This marina is at the end of the creek in a well protected cove so we decided to winter in the water. This is my curent project. A dingy for the Alberg. Aproching the bay bridge.

Alberg 30 Restoration: January 2014
http://alberg30129.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 18, 2014. Bottom of rudder. Bronze rudder shaft with tapped threads. Pin in the rudder. The only attachment to the boat was the gudgeon at the mid station of the rudder and the pin that held the two together was worn in half. The plan of attack was to remove the rudder and see how to fix the pin and renue the gudgeon. Removing these screws became a big problem. The biggest screwdriver was not big enough! Gudgeon were next. Four bolts that came apart relatively easy.

Monday, February 9, 2015. I'm also trying to refinish the cabin sole. The teak is like iron. I've gone thru two 60 grit belts on my favorite tool. The belt sander. Edges and corners get done with a multi tool. Works great. I'll keep hammering at this until I see better results. Sunday, February 1, 2015. Ladder in the folded up position.
