Hi Everyone,
It's been awhile. I pulled the Chucky B. out of winter storage today thanks to a long wet spring and discovered it didn't fare to well. After nine years of use the spars are in pretty bad shape. The mast and gaff need to be completely stripped and refinished but the boom has a bad case of rot on the end an isn't going to be reusable. This wasn't completely unexpected since I spliced a piece in last year to get another year out of it. Since it needs replacing has anyone made a lighter version? In my opinion it's probably the most over built of the spars. I'm thinking of making a hollow version.
