GONZO my 1982 Freedom 25 sailboat

GONZO my Freedom 25 yacht:
This blog will document the continued restoration of my 1982 Freedom 25 sailboat, along with all the experiences I have. I purchased my F25 in the winter of 2009 from the 3rd owner who had the boat in NH. Gonzo has a composite rotating winged mast, yanmar inboard diesel, a Gun Mount spinnaker pole and staysail. This is my 1st cruising sailboat and I look forward to learning how to maintain and slowly restore and sail in Narraganset.

bottom work:

here are some pics of my Freedom 25 after the bottom paint has been removed, I was able to scrape it all off as it was not sticking to the hull very well. As you can see I found a few thru hole's which were filled some done right some not, and some damage which needs to be addressed. I plan to do a 100 grit sand and do 2 light coats of bottom paint.
note: with bottom paint removed from frt one can really see the hull shape which is quite nice,"did I buy a J24 ;)"
