Love it! Well done!

Just for fun here is my pic These are the best C Dorys for open water

If you are interested and you are in Maui there is a Tom Cat moored in the main Lahina harbour close to the far end of the dock. I have seen it an taken pictures of it before when I visited.

The ole’ classics may not have all the bells and whistles of the newer boats but it was their great success as a simple efficient and safe boat that laid the foundation for all the later models. If you get a good hull and a good motor you have got yourself a good boat. There isn’t much more to...

Love it! Thanks for the tip! Windy had been one of my favourite boating apps for a long time and now it is even more! The only caveat I have noticed is there is still a chance of localized winds blowing in a different direction than shown. I was just up in Gibson’s. Windy was showing the...

It was a lot of work but in the end I am very happy! On my way back to the Gulf Islands! So excited! On the water again! (Finally) Time to enjoy the fruits of my labour!

Peacefully at rest
