Wow, Larry.  I just read this and was moored next to you last week.  I am so sorry.  I hope Hassle is fixable.  She's worth it!

  Hi all;

  Just a note to let all my amigos here know we had an electrical fire on Hassle Thursday evening.  The damage is significant but limited to wiring in the engine compartment and fuel tank area so it may be repairable. We are working with our insurance carrier, their retained surveyor and an electrician now and will make a determination soon on Hassle's future.  Wish us good luck on this please. 

  We had an mechanic/electrician installing a new 105 amp alternator on Hassle when this happened, we are not sure what the cause of the fire is just yet.  I have an Origin and Cause Expert coming down tomorrow to check and see if he can determine the origin and cause of the fire.

  I'll try to keep everyone posted on our progress or lack of.

  Best regards,

  Larry Malmberg
