Replying to:New happy owner.
Hello all. My name is Paul. My wife Marie and I have recently retired and relocated to Tasmania from sweaty Perth in WA, purchased a home in Hobart and have rejoined the sailing fraternity after a long absence. We have just purchased a fixed keel RL28 by the name of " Fantacy" ( sail no. 490) and joined the Derwent Sailing Squadron where the boat is now penned. I have a question. I have read on this website that the boat originally had a topping lift for the boom. Fantacy doesn't have one so the boom rest on the cabine top when hoisting and lowering the main. Can someone please tell me if the original topping lift fitting should still there and where they are? Look forward to a reply and starting correspondence with other RL 28 owners in Tassie. Regards, Paul.
