Hi folks

[Waltm]

Just a brief introduction, I'm a newish member but have been reading as a guest for a while now.

I've owned a Hobie 18SX, which is what I learned to sail on as an adult and have the most sailing experience on, mostly around Buzzards Bay. After that bought and fixed up a Catalina 22, which was somewhat abandoned in a boat yard when the owned had moved, and had enjoyed that for a number of years sailing in Narragansett Bay,

We have recently purchased a '79 Pearson 323. With the larger size boat comes a lot of systems that are new to me so I'll probably be posting a lot of questions.
