Were all of the modifications done by Blue Water Yachts?
No, we did a lot of the mods in house, but not everything. Probably it's easiest
to list things grouped by who did the primary work.
Things done by Roger Macgregor, or at the MacGregor factory.
The actual changes to the fiberglass layup
Design of the keel bulb
Machining the foam patterns for the keel casting
Custom assembly to allow deleting unnecessary deck hardware
Design of reinforced daggerboard (Roger & I Together)
Things done by Blue Water Yachts.

Retractable bowsprit with traveler system
Ball bearing mast rotation system

I think that's a pretty complete list, although there are LOTS of little things we
did along the way to help things work better, or just to make stuff the way we wanted
it on our own boat.
