fendertweed is on a distinguished road
I single hand my P26 most of the time in the wide Potomac s. of mt. vernon, n. of Quantico (when my wife doesn't come along)... still need to get some jackline points mounted in the cockpit wall w/ backing plate so I can run them up to the bow cleat or stanchion base, but I'm within 1-2 mi. of one shore or another wherever I am...

last singlehanded day was about 15-25kts, as my slip neighbor w/ the P323 says, "that's work, not fun!..."

this was Nov. 05, hull speed+ (6.5 kts) in Occoquan Bay ...



cheers,
Jon
