Steve,
If I remember correctly, CSY stands for Caribbean Sailing Yachts. IMO, Potters and CSYs are equal in quality.

Their all good hulls, just that the newer they got, the cheaper the rigging/hardware became.
I have been in them from the 70's (potter), 80's (CSY/Tracker), and 90's to current.
They all are about as good of a hull design and construction as you can get.
After 15-20 years, the transoms rot off from all of them, put a new one on and go for another 15-20 years.

Thanks for all of the info. I already have done the transom about 2 yrs ago. I did it myself with the advice of a professional fiberglass man. What a heck of a job, took about a year of working on it here and there. I would like to believe that it is stronger now than it ever was before. I went with less wood and more glass. I went through 15 gal of vinylester resin.

Steve,
To post to this site, you have to get Trayder to do it for you. However, JohnR set up his site, www.theboatzone.com/gallery , so you can post pics there and it will link you back to this site.

Scott Thanks for the info, however I’m not very computer literate. Obviously I need to create a login name and pass word on the boat zone site and I’m not sure how to do this. I’ve got to go to work now; I’ll mess with it later. Thanks for being patient.

Ok Scott, I finally got the pics on the boat zone. I still need to strip the top side of the boat and paint it and the wind shield frame. web page web page
