To repair or not to repair, that's the question?

Do you have a link for those 5.7s? I can't find it anywhere with a search.

The year round sailing is great here in Texas. Galveston Bay doesn't get much colderer than 54 degrees.

I think I'm the guy on eBay with the wrecked 570. I mean, it isn't like there are a bunch of storm wrecked 570s around! It had the D shaped beams and they are both toast. I do, however, have some 5.0 and 5.2 round beams. -

Thanks Dan. I'm going to look at a couple of local 5.2s That would save me shipping costs to Canada. I just pulled my boat for the season yesterday. The water has cooled down to 56F, more importantly the weather has been crap. Either 60-80 clicks, cloudy, rainy, or dead calm, cloudy rainy.
I put the boat inside at my lakehouse, so I can tinker away over the winter, but in all reality, I probably won't get anything changed til April!
I'll contact you if these don't work out. If they're beat, I'd rather hold off & find a really good condition beam.
