Greetings All

Hello

I am new to this forum and thought I would take a moment to introduce myself. I have recently returned to sailing after many years as a power boater and semi-pro bass fisherman. I purchased a Catalina 25 and sailed that for about 6 months before buying a Catalina 36 named Lucky. My girlfriend and I spend every Friday-Sunday on Canyon Lake. We also joined the Hill Country Yacht Club and have made many many friends.

Having been on other forums in the past, I am looking forward to comradarie of other people with like interests. I travel several times a month as part of my job and that has allowed me to meet many of the people on the forums. It is always great to put faces with names and enjoy a drink or dinner with new found friends.

Bill

Bill,
No no no no no! The man is a bit daffy since he lost his throne in Portugal. Please don't send photos.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.

Teshannon I know I was always on the fishing forums, they really can be addictive. And I take it I need to keep and eye on Giulietta?

Thanks again

Welcome aboard Bill,

You will find a lot of knowledge here and fun. Giulietta is very knowledgeable and a very good sailor. He is our resident Portuguese and likes to have fun. Just don't post a photo unless you have a sense of humor.
