OK, so the little "thingy" is a duck punter. Would be a blast for a younger set of bones. I've gotten in some more time on several more boats and...
Sailed they day away in several different boats / types. Not a bad day by any means! A few stand out. Really enjoyed a little Capri 18, she was...
Sitting in a parking lot waiting for someone, then off to the bay (on the road still in FL). So short reply here. Don't mean literally stowing...
Wow, great comments and questions. Thank you. First off, you mentioned offering slip and service. Good idea and I'll likely use it. Alternative...
Got to spend a few hours out on the lake in a new friend's 16' drifter sailboat. She's a plywood stich and glue design from free plans online that...
On trust me, both of these are out of the running for my boat. The Oday is in fact a jav and in amazing condition. The "pilfored" stuff turned...
Sorry, one more thing. Anyone know squat about a late 70s buccaneer 20? Just had one offered to me for $100 by a client. Boat is in great shape...

Thanks Folks! Some things I should have mentioned. 1) I live part of the year on the lake in the family marina. This is where the boat will...
Hello, I have never ridden the wind and know very little. I want to find the right boat or design to learn to sail over the next year. This will...
lol thanks to those of you who posted to the thread rather than loading my inbox. BR is out. I know he has no real blue water designs and I know...
Would sure like to! He has no true blue water designs, but he's the only designer I have any experience with and well, to have other options, I...
I've corrected a couple "typos" above about LOA and "deep vee", but suffice it to say that I'm fairly certain that I want to go with a 56 LOA....
First off, thank you and "Deep Vee" was a typo of sorts. . while explaining what I was talking about (while typing) to my wife, I was comparing...
You are correct and thank you.
Knife bow? low angle or more vertical? Hard chine or radius? Rocker or straight? These are the questions that occur to me at the moment. Oh and...
