Saw a nice looking modern sloop in Ferandino Beach Yacht Basin - Looked to
be about 40ft. No builders name aywhere, so not one of the more common
makes. It looked fairly new - had two inspection tags in one window for
2005/6.

Only thing that might identify it, is that at teh aft end of teh cove
stripe, there is a small emblen that looks a bit like reverse styilized
S.

I tried to memorize the MIC, but have forgotten it - might have beeen
something like WNx - Only recall that first two letters were points of
compass reversed!

Any ideas as to what this might be?

Thanks Ken,

That's just the site I was looking for!

It's not totally clear, but I think I was probably looking at a new-style
Sabre. The MIC letters for a Sabre are HWS, so my recollection was a bit
off!

It was a quality boat and had dual shore power connections just as shown in
the picture. Almost certainly a Sabre.

Cape Breton Island eh? Brings back good memories of sailing the Bra d'Or
lakes and a trip to the Magdalens from Cheticamp.

Thanks again,

GM

I'll be making my resevations at the St. Peter's Marina next summer.
Great spot to start out.... for a sail on the lakes...or out through the
canal to Lennox Passage.
