    • Looks like it's been in salt water. Throw it away. (nm)
      • :) (nm)
    • If it's been in salt water it's finished isn't it? ;-) & if it was stored with the handle on it's been compromised. :-) (nm)
  • Totally not sailing related, but good awwww factor.... it's a boy! (pic)

        • Just beautiful, Joe - there have been some great sailing days lately, eh? (nm)

      • Did you notice the small item under the aft seat? (pic)
        • Is it true that a wood boat only lasts three years once it gets splashed with salt water? ;-) (nm)
          • Wooden boats last forever. Replace a plank here, a rib there, another plank here,... another rib there,.... (nm)
            • Yes, my family owns the hatchet that George Washington used to chop down the cherry tree. (link)
              • Don't let any salt water get on it! (nm)

    • South Benjamin, the most crowded anchorage in the North Channel (pic)
    • Croker Island, the second most crowded anchorage (pic)
    • Anchored inside the east entrance to Beardrop Harbor (pic)
      • Nice photos. Your boat looks great!! (nm)
        • Thanks! Nice to be able to post some photos of it actually cruising, rather than just being worked on. (pic)
          • *sigh* Just lovely! (nm)
        • Yeah, what he said - you've done an awesome job with her, DDW - and that dodger is very cool (nm)
          • Thanks to all for the compliments. I hope to be out to New England next year..
            • re "my hat size has increased by 3 sizes"
            • I'd love to see Anomaly in person (pic)
              • I'll probably be coming through there early next summer, will see if you are around. (nm)
    • I remember that place! what a beautiful spot....
  • Hurricane season must be over, we just had a snowy flurry (nm) (link) (pic)
    • Over.... ? (pic)
    • About Five or Six Days Ago ...
  • The pop up hard top dodger is finally finished....
    • Nice! (nm)
    • VERY NICE! (nm) (link)
    • Nice! Which solar panels did you use? (pic)
      • They are Sunware.. (pic)
        • My best advice is DON'T walk on them... (pic)
          • BTW the panels shown in my post are not the Sunware ones (pic)
    • Hah! Now that is a cool concept! (nm)
      • Not entirely original, however - Catalina did it over 30 years ago with the "Pop-Top" on their 25 (grin) (nm)
        • Yeah but not with solar panels and a zip out dodger. (nm)
          • There was an optional enclosure cover (nm)
        • The Rhodes 22 might have preceded that. (nm)
        • Damn! I could have saved a lot of money and bought a Catalina 25 instead! (nm) (pic)
          • stuffing box?
            • shaft seal
        • The pop-top is a dodger?
