Somebody up your way was advertising a Sandpiper 565 early October.
I called, but he didn't seem to know a lot about it.
I passed......didn't want to drive the 700-800 km round trip from Halifax
unless I felt it was worthwhile.
Our home club...the RNSYS sold off two of the Bluejackets a year or so
ago.(used for adult sailing courses)
I need something I can trailer behind a Voyager mini-van so I can do theBras
d'Or Lakes etc.

Do you motor or sail Ken? Bras d'or Lakes or ocean?

Sail. Start and finish the season in and around Sydney Harbour. Summers
in
the Bras d'Or Lakes. We don't own a boat yet (except for a Laser II) but
crew on, and have use of, a C&C 35 Mark I and also a Paceship Blue Jacket.
Or go out with friends of course.

I saw the movie Master and Commander and was disappointed. I started
off
enjoying it but became annoyed with it before the end. I've recently
finished The Truelove (the 16th?) in the series and am enjoying them
immensely. I'll second the "lacked depth" review.

You referred to spin-offs. To what do you refer? Titles please, or
whatever.

I don't mind a few "private" comments - In fact I took the opportunity to find
out where Sydney Harbor is. And, as a former Paceship owner (Eastwind), I was
curious about the Bluejacket.

However, I think its very rude to have a 14 line signature, when the netiquette
standard is 3. Is that why you're called "The Windman"?

BTW, I think the new Hornblower movies are pretty good. And while the "Master
and ..." movie lacks a plot, this is not the worst thing for an action movie.
Frankly, I thought the POB books lacked action and never finished the series -
the movie was much more enjoyable.
