Actually, Mike and I have been land cruising the west coast of the US
for the past two months, tent camping, yurt camping, hotel camping and
staying with friends and family. We will continue sailing Mexico next
October once the hurricane season is over.

For a quick re-cap of last season… We sailed down to Mexico in
October stopping in Cabo, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Manzanillo and
all the little coves and villages in between. Then, we sailed back up
to the Sea of Cortez spending time in La Paz, Loreto, Mulege and
finally stopping in San Carlos where (hopefully) Arabella will be safe
from any hurricanes that may brew up this season.

We look forward to next season where we will spend a lot more time
exploring the many beautiful anchorages in the Sea of Cortez. I can't
wait!

John,

We are a Group of sailors that are more or less happy with one another.
We don't really fit into a "Mold"

I like to think of us as a group of sailors in the "Club" bar, after the
races letting our hair down, so to speak.

There is a lot of sailing knowledge in the group but we're not going to
be bound to it. As you can see right now with our politics. We spend a
lot of time on BS like any sailor after a "Few Drinks" at the bar. We
are Opinionated, (Oh Yes) I do think we all admit to it!! We accept the
fact that not " Everyone cannot be as Brilliant as Me" and make
allowances. It makes for good discussions.

That is my thought of the group, I'm sure other see it differently.
We've lost some damn good sailor because of it but we have made some
very good 'Net friends. and we are friends.

So, I think you are aware of who we are and we welcome you to our
(Clique) and it is a clique but a open clique.

If you came to us looking for sailing knowledge you can find it BUT you
better have a thick skin. If you just want information there are other
groups that will suit you better. WE ARE NOT THE COAST GUARD AUX.

Welcome John! I like your new (USED) boat. It's a beauty

Finally made it to Mobile Bay, AL. Well I'm going to miss the L&A bash up
in Oak Harbor this go round after all. I was given a choice of staying on
or getting off andthought long and hard as the tweenships 'vacation' was
only eight days this time. But there's lots of L&A party's and I have a lot
of friends everywhere they are held so it's something to look forward to in
the near future. Missed spending time in the home area and on the boat
however PT Rigging up home is doing a great job of managing the boat
refit/upgrade and every day of work gets me that much closer and makes up
for all that lost time so I opted to keep at it.

Ship is rising even as we speak in a floating drydock. We expect to be done
and on the way again in a few/several/some/???weeks time. I've seen this
floating drydock business before but never been on one while ithappens. The
close attention to weights, centersof gravity and balance would delight all
you math-amatoids. We give them our figures, they adjust the dock to suit
or as close as possible. They sink the dock and we give them our updated
weight/balance/ballast figures and they advise us one what changes to make
in our ballast tanks. Then the dock comes up and if all goes wel . . . . .
.. ..l we'll see how it goes.

On the home front the new boat project leaped forward again with the newly
added fuel and water tanks installed. Now they are back to finishing off a
few things above decks and the new sails come next in August/September.
We're looking at some design suggestions for the stern rail/arch system. The
big thing was making sure it either met cross-country hauling
specifications or had some way of being lowered for trucking purposes. The
second ongoing discussion is on which prop to use. I'm leaning toward the
kind that has the four big Mickey Mouse ear style of blades with each blade
rotating rather than all of them folding parallel to the shaft. Any
suggestions or comments?

New article for L&A is in the final stages. That makes one published, two
accepted and two more in the works. A good way to spend the spare time.

Next stop? Who knows? There's time enough in my schedule for two more of
these jobs. Before you know it will be next Spring, the boat will be done
and the next adventure will start. I'll look forward to stopping byenroute,
starting with Katy of course!

Cheers and fairwinds!

Michael

Urbanna is beautiful but pricey. Have you looked into keeping the boat
at Reedville or maybe Ingram Bay? Of course there are some very capable
boat yards in Urbanna too.

We've sailed all around that area, the Rappahannock is one of our
favorites. Except for the traffic going in and out of Deltaville... boat
& car both...
