When fiberglass starts breaking you
In Response To: Thanks for the offer, I'll keep that in mind... Say, did you hear about that Malo 45 lost in the Indian Ocean recently? ()
know the end is probibly near. It sounds like they did about all they could. It's to bad they couldn't have devised some way to stabilize the top of the rudder with the emergency tiller where it comes through the deck. That might have slowed down the water ingress until the weather abated. All in all, I think it was a good call. What a sad deal, it was a nice boat.
