I am asking assistance from cat25 owners on the West coast of Fla. Have any of you a recommendation of a yard that has done C25 work, between St. Pete to the North and Ft Myers to the South? I am looking forwards to the end of summer, and expect to do replacement of keel cable, pivot pin and housing, winch, turning ball, etc. Would like to find a yard that has already done the learning curve and has knowledge of the Swing keel 25. Thanks much, ron srsk Orion 1981 in Venice, FL

I am having bottom paint done August 11th. Will also have them replace the keel cable, turning ball etc ... so they will have learned on my boat. Can't vouch for their work since this will be my first time using them but they only do "below the waterline" work. They also seem to have quite a bit of work and do not advertise... I take that as a good sign.

Tim, thanks for reply. But SURELY there must be SOMEBODY who has already had experience with a yard, rather than looking forwards to finding out whether they know how to deal with a swinger? Help, you Florida guys (gals, whatever) Ron sr sk Orion
