New pictures posted of the manual pump instalation replacing the rotted and ancient macerator. Other pictures showing the teak cleaning and refinishing progress and the last added picture shows a pulley tied to the leading stanchion of the stern pulpit that facilitates the operation of the roller furler line. My boat, "Wings of Gold" may be seen in the background.

I also soaked the mainsheet line in a bucket of laundry detergent and a little bleach. It no longer resembles an anchor rode. I learned that the totally gray mainsheet used to be white with red tracing. It is now really supple and soft and at the end of the season it will go to the washing machine for a thorough treatment.

Also removed and installed a new battery.

Items remaining include interior fiberglass restoration, navlights (they don't work), throw pillows courtesy of Mom.

Sometime after June 17th I will put on this link for swap meet consideration the following items

Cat-25 153 Genoa in its own sail bag (can be seen in some of the link photos)
Cat-25 Jib (unknown size but considerably smaller than the 153) in its own sail bag
Brand new royal blue sunbrella jib bag (hangs from the forestay) and can be seen in some of the link photos
One year old tiller always kept in cover. Can be seen in some of the earlier link photos.
Brand new tiller never mounted
One manual faucet pump (a spare I had but too big for the Cat 25).



1980 Cat-25 SR/SK. Dinette version
