I don't think I'd appreciate the 6-week season (for our purposes), but
I have lots of friends in the area since our lovely lady was originally
Canadian.

Hi there. I don't know if I mentioned it, but I was "brought
up" (loose term) on an Alberg 30. I find the Ontario version of
boating to be a bit small for my tastes. I'd rather something
larger. I'm starting to look at a Beneteau 35' and then I want to
move up to something larger. I also have my eye on a slip at National
where I was a member (as a small kid) 35 years ago.
