I finally got my 1979 Prindle 18 (hull #233) on the water last month. I bought it in 2010 and brought her to Georgia from Tennessee. She was breached in seven different places and had soft top sides. Thanks for all the input I received from this site. She sailed great. I named her Cat Patch Fever. If you're interested, here's a link to a brief video clip on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21RmuzvhjGo

That's great I always love to see an old Prindle fixed up and saved rather than junked.
