Ol Thom Tons of surplus sailboat in Oak Harbor
 
http://www.govliquidation.com/list/c7073/lna/1.html

The Govt is selling a whole harbor full of sailboats.
How close to Oak Harbor are you?

JOE,

That's a NAS base. About forty miles from me. However, I belong to a
Camping Assoc. and my home park is about 3 miles from their Runway. Had
to get use to the Jets going on Night Missions, to sleep.

I like the 10 foot gremlins they have, would make a nice dink that
would fit my davits.

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.

Military base special services.
Gives the military people something fun to do while off duty.

Katie,

A well written MEMO should do the trick, an invasion isn't necessary.

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! !

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.

Kinda heavy for a good dink.

15 foot Banshee's are great looking lake boats.

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.

Yeah...you didn't know about that, huh? There's at least 20 of them...all
aimed at you...Took a while to get enough 6 year olds to agree yo sail that
far, though..
