Damn, I need some eye bleach after seeing that awning support structure... (grin)

Hey Tom,

It must have killed Ted Fontaine to have to see that added to such a perfect boat... Wow, that craftsmanship is simply off the charts...

Really nice to see a boat like that without a cluster of NavPods on the binnacle, and I like the way they've 'hidden' the plotter... But for the helmsman to be unable to reach it without moving around the wheel could be a bit frustrating, I wonder if it has a handheld remote of some kind? Of course, perhaps the owner is more of an old school guy who can manage his daysails without a plotter, anway?

I imagine his home is one of those magnificent properties on Hobe Sound, no? Still, even with her shallow draft, Jupiter Inlet is one of the last places on Florida's East coast I'd want to have to sail out of, even in relatively settled conditions it can act up, and proved deadly to a local sportfishing captain a few years ago...

Thanks for sharing your pics, wonderful as always...

best regards,

Jon
