Re: New to me C26

Hi Kyle. Glad to hear someone who sailed Ligntnings. In the summer of 1982 I crewed on a Lightning, sailing below UWGB campus on Green Bay. I was the "Chute Hand", and sailed with a great Captain. I really learned a lot that summer. They used a vise grip for a Plumb Line. Great vessel!

Hi Lee, Do you still have your C-15 Man O War? Did you find the Title? I'd be interested if she is still available?

Sailing in west texas

I have been a member of this Forum for five years, and my sailing was done a long time ago. Now, living in west texas, I need a Day Sailor. My first sailing experience was in 1982, being a crew member on an O'Day Lightning. I was the "Chute Hand" managing the Spinnaker on the down wind leg...

Re: anyone sailing a c-20 ?

Weldon, how is your C_20 sailing? I tried to buy a c-20 in Arizona, but the owner was saving it for his son. If you don't mind telling, how much did you pay for your C-20?

Re: 1978 C-20 capacity decal

I'm anxious to hear how the "Summer of Sailing" has been. I had my eye on a C20 in Arizona. Tried to buy it, but the owner was saving it for his son. I never did get a cruse on her.

Re: I did it! I bought a boat today.

Beautiful C22!! Makes my heart beat a little faster to see how "Ship Shape" she looks. Seems like everything's there, including the American Flag! Wonderful family, giving lots of support. Is that a Ham radio tower in the background? My two favorite things, sailing & ham radio.

Freeride

Hi Tim,
Freeride looks beautiful. She looks solid and tight, just needs some cleaning and stowing.
This opinion comes from a total novice, so take it with a grain of salt.

Now would be a good time to think about the box and wires again. Mounting it under the companionway would be a convienent place to put it.
