Just looking for common areas to inspect for this year. It's a WB, with pedestal.

Overall it looks very good, but she's still 27 years old!

Hi PB,

Standing rigging is always the concern because of the damage caused by failure.
If you have a C250WB then hopefully it’s mast down on the trailer.
Inspect in mast crane, stays, shrouds, turnbuckles, and chain plates.
Any corrosion or worn fittings are worrisome.

Do you or the former owner sail in freshwater or saltwater?
