    So, I see this old ugly San Juan. For some reason it was yelling! Restore me!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Granted, they are not fast boats but for some reason this one was calling my name.  I am not in a rush to do it as I am refreshing our Catamaran first.  We shall see how she develops as she will be redone with my morning coffee and evening cocktail a little bit at a time.
