Description: After my 32-foot catamaran sailboat, Top Cat, was wrecked during Hurricane Georges in September,
1998, I repaired it my­ self. This book is an account of my experiences with the wreck and the
repair.
Months of effort were required to get the insurance claim paid, though there were no disputed
issues, and that is a part of this account.
As a homeowner I had done simple plumbing, carpentry, and electrical work, but I had virtually no
experience working on boat repairs and none at all with fiberglassing. I learned the necessary
skills as the job progressed and sometimes I learned the hard way. My education in the basics of
boat repair is also part of this story.
The hands-on work of repair took six months, but the big­ gest part of the job was planning,
organizing, and obtaining parts to replace those that were missing or damaged. Hundreds of let­
ters, faxes, e-mails and telephone calls were required to put Top Cat back together. I communicated
with the insurance agent, the claims adjuster, the insurance company, the Florida Depart­ ment of
Insurance, the boat manufacturer, equipment and parts suppliers, sailboat riggers, sailmakers, and
many others.
