What do you conclude from these three examples, as they relate to your boat thing?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - That there is still a couple weeks at least till I can plan on going for the boat..maybe more maybe less, but I will not call the guy for at least a week or two.. |

You buying a boat from this guy, or doing some sort of work for him? I am picking up a mostly finished sailboat from a guy who never had the time to finish it and just wants it gone. I hope to finish it up during the summer.. Nice little daysailer with a small cuddy, sleeps 3-4, room for small kitchenette.. Is the 'big guy' gonna fit on that weekender?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - For the record, it's not weekender (stevproj.com), it's the larger version called Vacationeer. It's 20 feet long, and 8 feet wide... I was just ysing a generic term for small sailboats with minimal overnight accomodation. My Sandpiper 565 was a weekender.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yeah, I figured, but just wanted to be clear as the designer of these vessels has a boat called "Weekender". Anyway, I am very excited but will probably need some sailing lessons after I get a sail bent on. So if you get down this way... ![]() Maybe we can enter it in the 2009 Marblehead/Halifax race. You, me & Tom should make a competent crew. http://www.marbleheadtohalifax.com/ |
