Scot,
Uncle Sam has sailboats and canoes for the same reason they have pool tables and bowling alleys, baseball fields, basketball courts, Px's, etc. Its to keep the troops happy and to get the re-enlistment rate up? It sure beats the hell out of the DRAFT! ! Ole Thom |

Nah, but a mate of mine spent, is still spending actually, his whole Naval career swaning around the world teaching Oz sailors how to sail. nice work, if you can get it. Scotty |

I like the 10 foot gremlins they have, would make a nice dink that would fit my davits. Kinda heavy for a good dink. The vanguards look like fun, The Flying Jr look like more fun, and the 15 foot Banshee's are great looking lake boats. Would not touch one of thoses Gay 20 with a 20 foot pole. What about the 40' Willard utility/personnel boat? The Flying Junior is a fun boat. These look more like the club boats rather than the class boats, no traps or spinnakers. Not quite as zippy as the 420 but prettier and in many ways better mannered. The Lasers look like good deals, I bet some club nearby is going to snap them up. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
Yeah...you didn't know about that, huh? There's at least 20 of them...all
