Potterers,
I've nearly completed my conversion of a Siren 17 sloop into a
gunter rig. I've posted 18 photos in the Yahoo Club for Siren
Owners. If you search on the Yahoo.com page and go to clubs;
then search Siren; go to Siren Owners Club; Photos; you'll find
them.

Of interest to Potters:
1. The raised tabernacle of ss.
2. The Harbor Freight 110volt hoist used to pulled boat uphill
into garage.(We discussed this a number of months ago in the
group.)
3. Balanced aluminum rudder made from scrap plate.
4. Aluminum boarding ladder.
5. Method of locking Seagull to transom.
6. Electrical panel.

I'd like to thank all those who contributed ideas to this
project, which I think has turned out well. My thanks goes out
especially to Harry Gordon who answered many questions, and even
contributed in more material ways.

Thanks, enjoy,
Bill Longyard
