|  List of "Known Survivors"
Attached please find latest copy of "Known Survivors". Encompasses all Roamers we have found to exist today. Sorry about the .txt format - it was the only one that would load here. OWNERS/ROAMER SPOTTERS: CHECK over the list and see if you see your boat and/or any others that you know about. There's a 50 cent reward for all new "additions" - $1.00 if it includes a hull#  Cheers! Eric Webmaster, CC Roamers www.geocities.com/alloyed2sea (ifanybodyelsewouldlikethisjoborjustwantstohelp,sa y,designandbuildanewccroamerwebsiteemailmerightawa ydontwaitorthinkaboutitalot)

Quite the fine Roamer, no? Didnt realize this one had changed handz - but he's one lucky guy indeed. Got her down for a silver anniversary award, but unfortunately no hull # (darn). Shame really - that one is a certain "millenium" cruiser (year 3000 AD ).Wish I'd make it so long sailing on Earth. Meanwhile, hope all is well at Kent Narrows. Cheers!

|  57 Roamer Quote:
http://www.geocities.com/alloyed2sea...iviera_57.html But we have nothing in the records about this particular boat (name?) - sorry to say.  Wonder if you have you actually seen her & where that might have been. Jim Wyck at www.chris.parts probably helped build her and is always very helpful with good advice. Hope all turns out well. Cheers! Eric

|  Interiors
Craig - Formica was the "wave of the future" which CC began to use in the late 60s. No surprise your Roamer (name?) has it. The good (gudder?) news is that - should you wish for a warmer, more "real" wood interior, now you can apply your own wave-of-the-future: Pressure Sensitive Adhesive - (PSA) backed veneer: all, in any one of a number of wood finishes. See more here: http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?sku=2213&cs=1 http://www.vandykes.com/subcategory/246/ http://www.formwood.com/product_info...products_id/11 http://www.tapeease.com/Home.htm https://www.ovisonline.com/store/wood_veneers.asp Many other suppliers on the web as well... Methods: http://www.oakwoodveneer.com/tips/psa.html This stuff is Awesome! Have even used it successfully in areas that get a bit of weather. Finally, hope for the "woodless". Cheers! Capt Eric (itzallabouthtewood)

| Correction to List of Known Survivors
Eric I have a correction to give you on the list of Know Survivors. An email that I received from the owner of the 1957 31' "Rhiannon" , ROX-31-157, states that it is a 1961 model. And my boat, 35' 1960 Riviera ROX-35-418 "The Shangri-La" is also a 1961 model built and delivered on Dec 27, 1960.
