[C38] Boat repair yards, Puget Sound

[Steve Smolinske]

Steve, 
 
When we bought our boat in Olympia we had work done at Swantown, good
people they did a nice job, Walt is a little flakey with follow up items
at times.   After that we moved the boat to Seattle and had Seaview East
do our mast and rigging, they do great work too and Roland (Yard manager
at Seaview East and Harris at Seaveiw West) are really good guys to work
with, however they wont let you sand the bottom,  Im taking the boat in
two weeks to Canal Boat yard where they will  let me do bottom work.   
 
Steve

Hi North-West sailors,  
 
You guys convinced me, rather easily, that I don't want to sail my boat
up there  from San Diego area.  I found a reputable boat trucking
company (Piazzo Boat Transfer) to do the job for $3500.  My question now
is about boat yards to have the boat delivered to.  I have talked to
Swantown Boat Works in Olympia and they sound OK.  The main problem I
have with yards, they won't let me hand sand (lightly) the bottom before
painting, using all the proper care of spreading tarps to collect the
debris, etc and Swantown said they would.  I'm also going to paint the
mast and have the rigging tensile tested before assembly and  hoisted
back in the boat. 
 
Any suggestions are appreciated,  Steve Orton (Santa Susanna)
