Dominque,

Very nice. It looks like you did a lot of hard work to bring it back looking so well.

I like the post-war electric bilge pump...something I will probably put in in multiple places!!!

Good swimming,

Donovan.

My dear friend Dominique,

She looks great! :D
So finaly all your efforts were not in vain.
You did it complete and that's the only right way to do!
This year 2008 MUST be the year that we finaly can sail
together in Germany :wink: !
Looking forward to drive with you this summer
in the beautifull surroundings of Argeles Sur Mer!
Wonderfull job and I know how much work,time and money
it costs to get a GPA in this stage!

Have as much fun with her like I have!
