Beautiful job on a beautiful boat. Trying to figure out where you did the work based on the shots of the trip the boat took to Great Salt Pond. Looks like the old section of Wakefield near Peace Dale?

Have a great summer sailing after all your hard work! I'll be looking for you when ever I head east.

I live at the top of Old Mountain Rd right next to Old Mountain Field. We built the boat shed in our back yard. We keep the boat in Dutch Harbor. If you are ever there, come by and say "Hi".

What a delightful small world! I'll bet you have a teacher at Chestnut Hill Academy in your family.

I think I've been hearing about this boat for a couple years.

Peter and I sing in the OC, do lights, talk robots and boats. He just emailed me to say he was sailing with you this weekend. What a hoot!

Our family nickname for him is El Diablo - The master blaster - ask him someday how he got it. You'll get a smile out of him.

AMAZING!!!

Now that's what I call a refit! Congratulations on a tremendous and thorough job. I'm sure you and you're wife are rightfully proud of what you've accomplished.

aaaaah. I've finally finished reading that thread.

That is one serious boat. Nice work.
Now go spend twice as much time sailing her!

I, like Figment, just finished reading your boat thread. What a beautiful boat and a job well done. I hope you find lots of time to spend on her enjoying long sails.

Some of your pictures brought back some teanage memories. I spent 5 years as a kid on the Great Salt Pond. Dad had his 35 ft. old wooden sailboat hauled at Ram Point every year. I had some great times on the water (liquid and frozen) there.
