[quote=peterk123]The Prindle 18 is a gem of a boat. If your hulls are in good shape, you will be able to fix almost anything on it.
Here is a link to a bunch of random pics of mine ([url]https://plus.google.com/photos/100823080771304279669/albums/5919068821930300209?authkey=CJWHh8bysLGRpwE[/url]). I purchased it last fall and have been pecking away at it. She is about ready to be put on the water.
Here is the list of things I did:
Sanded, buffed and soon to be waxed the hulls;
replaced the deck plates with brand new black ones;
Faired and painted the rudders;
replaced the rudder lines;
Shimmed the tiller crossbar;
all new standing rigging, except for bridle (that will happen soon);
All new lines;
purchased a better set of used sails from Pete B;
sent out new used set of sails to Sailcare;
Cleaned up mast, replaced hinge plate and main halyard;
new mast ball;
created an updated downhaul;
created an updated outhaul;
homemade hiking stick(s);
New lower mainsheet blocks (viadana-great deal);
pigtail for mainsheet blocks with quick release;
rebuilt the trailer;
need to make a new set of trapeze lines, although old ones are still functional.[/quote]
