I have the windows out to re seal, I have to re seal the stantions and genoa track etc to stop leaks. I need to put the little doors in as I have already varnished all the woodwork and I have polished the hull and decks. All the rigging has been washed and the sails cleaned. I need to service the engine for winter and run fresh fuel through it with additive. She has no head (toilet) thankfully and no sink which pleases me. I want to keep her simple and fun.

No, there's no separate boat gallery section. There hasn't yet been a great demand for that. Just post here, like you did, or any suitable section!

Nice photos of your boat! It's nice to see an IF-boat in other surroundings.

You seem to use land vechicles also from Sweden.

Yes I have been a SAAB enthusiast for over fourty years. Owning 36 including a Sonett, Two Strokes 96's, and each of the rest of the range. Like the IF Boat they were superbly engineered. I have travelled to Trollhatten to the SAAB museum a few times and discovered the west coast of Sweden from Gothenburg. I would love to sail it one day...

The green (original paint) SAAB is a one owner 70k miles which I will never sell, my IF Boat will be with me for years also, my last boat, love it, especially in orange.
