Hey, this board is still alive! And, anyone need parts?

Hi All,
I was a member a while back, then I couldn't log in forever, but I got an email today that I'm allowed in again. Yay!
While I was out, I ended up getting another SJ21, this one hull #3. I bought it mostly for the mast and some of the rigging. As near as I can figure, it's been out in the weather for at least 5 or 6 yrs in northern MT. There are a couple soft spots on the deck, the keel winch is missing and I'm pretty sure the keel bolt is original as it's fiber-glassed in place.
Having said all that, if anyone is wanting a project, I'd let this go for not much at all. I go what I needed (the mast). There is a set of cushions for the quarter berths, the deck hardware is mostly intact, the bow pulpit is in great shape. Mostly wanting to offer it up on here to see if anyone wants parts or the whole thing. If no one want the whole thing I'll strip the rest of the hardware and take the hull to the dump. I'll put a link to my google photos to show you what's there. Located in western MT (near Missoula). https://photos.app.goo.gl/KYHiUE2sCAFqyQzU9
On the plus side, Orbweaver will have an unbroken mast again, and I plan to spend as much time as possible on her this summer. Who knows, maybe I'll make the western Nats if they are held within a reasonable distance.
