[C38] Retrofitting opening cabin windows

[Charles Finn]

My windows do not open, but they are a vast improvement on the old stock
ones!  I have a complete description along with photos in Tech Tips on our
website.

Another matter.  I am currently sailing the Mighty Quinn from Lake Champlain
through the Great Lakes to Duluth, Minnesota.  This my first email contact
in 13 days as storms, remote anchoring, etc. have made staying in contact
difficult to say the least!  I am currently in Lake Erie after a grueling
day coming through the Welland Canal (high winds).  Russ will see me at the
western end of the lake in five days or so!
I expect to be in Duluth around the middle of June and will not be able to
make changes in our website until then (unless there is an emergency).  I
hope everyone be patient for my return... when I will make any and all
requested changes!

All the best,
Charles Finn
Mighty Quinn,  #114
