OK, I'll give it a try...

This is my new (good old) boat; a 1991 Catalina Capri 26.

There were only 318 built, so they are not terribly common.

I bought her last Friday.
It has rained hard every day since!
(I could contract with the farmers?)



Good for you Richard! I just sold mine. )

It wasn't a sailor though - just a 32' Trojan sedan. Built in '78 (Picture
