First solid sail after a year and a half refit! 8 hours up the coast. Jib and jigger then eventually full sail.

Then two days later on a 26 hour beat back home after our damn engine blew up! (Awesome sail though!)

Y'all all have some beautiful boats!

Here's pic of Everlasting Moon on the Indian River a few years ago.....

How do like your dinghy? We have a WB as well, love how it rows and we carry its sail kit on board as well. (Though I don't seem to use it as much as I'd like to!)

Thats actually not a bad idea! Somebody needs to get on that!

BTW you are in Alberta? That doesn't look like Alberta...

Sure... rub it in... I haven't seen the poor thing, sails or not, in a year now.

She's having a lovely, snowles winter in Nanaimo...

I love the WB....it suits my purposes perfectly! I love that it rows well for getting exercise and stealthy exploring of small creeks and inlets, the sail kit makes it a fun knock-about, and with the float tubes it's easy to climb in and out of when snorkeling or diving. It handles two adults well, although in a chop you're both likely to get a bit damp

It's not a rocket ship under power, but I've never felt that to be a major drawback.

I never catch that many fish. I'm lucky if I can hit the legal limit...

Isn't that where a boom normally goes?

Some bubblehead thought it was a good idea to move the gooseneck up, you know so they could clear a 2nd bimini. That made a dramatic difference in how the boat sailed. Now the goose is back below the black band where it belongs.

These are a couple recent ones actually. We were on a shake down sail a couple weeks after Hurricane Sally hit us. You'll notice the rashed up top side and missing stuff on the top of the mast. A boat next to us rigging came loose and wrapped around our mast, tore the chicken, anchor light, VHF and some of the wiring out of the mast.

That's an odd spot for the keel..

This is me and Cshell a Penobscot 13 that I built on Lower Bolton Lake in CT last year. Like everyone getting pics of your own boat sailing is rare.

I remembered that this was some sort of art project. And it is still faster than a Westsail 32, and safer than a MacGregor 26.

Very old picture but please forgive me, I'm a very old sailor and life has moved on. Halfway to Hawaii (i.e. over 1000 miles to the nearest land) on my Cal 40 sailing in the first Single-Handed Transpac Race. 13 days, didn't win but it was a great trip.
