Hello from the new owner of Questia, a W32

    Hello, I am the new owner of Questia, hull #606. I want to say thanks to the previous owners as they did an amazing job in reviving her, the work they did and their care of the boat was top notch and is very appreciated. After looking at many different boats in the last few years including four Westsail 32s, I am grateful that Questia found me. Her new home is in Portland Oregon on Hayden Island, and I am enjoying being a live aboard. I am currently in process of getting to know the boat and all her system with some boat projects completed and new ones in the works. If I can get enough done I hope to sail her for the first time around New Years, or shortly thereafter. I have already learned a ton and been inspired by the Westsail people I have already met, good to be a part of the Westsail family.

    Have a fantastic New Year!

    Warren

    probably had issue like yours, and You Tube is your friend.

    And Drum Roll please, we have Mr. Westsail aka Bud Taplin Westsail.com to help you

    I have been out sailing a few times, and plan on doing much more. I have completed a few projects including the install of a Wallas diesel heater along with new standing rigging and life lines. Soon, Questia will be on the hard for a fairing modification and a bottom job. Hope all is going well with your Westsail and you are sailing often.
