John Edwards with Miss T, I'll guide you in Mystic, CT in Sept, as long as it's my USCG duty Station.

John, I'm sure Connie will bring his 15 down, and the Metcalf's who bought Seth's 15 might join us, then we'd be 2 17's and 2 15's........A virtual Renedevous! And there is a place we can anchor North of Mystic Seaport. Plus I can give you a 'land toour' if the weather goes bad. Actually this invitation is for sailors of ANY brand sailboat, the more the merrier :) Great State of the Union Address if I say so from a Military Man's perspective, sure to boost moral in the troops, Eugene Whoa Nellie M17, Old Mystic, CT __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Texas sailing
by Randy Watkins 29 Jan '02

29 Jan '02

Texas sailors , vistors welcome! Hello fellow sailors, I've had discussions with some different sailors and a few group sails have been discussed for consideration. I thought I'd put these out to give you time to consider, comment on and perhaps recommend a date / location. 1. Jan. 19/20- Choke Canyon, Tx ( fairly close to Corpus Christi, Tx ) http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/park/choke/ cruise leader- Louis Cisnero ( this one has alreadt taken place, it was fun, large lake, not crowded, I'd like to revisit ) This is a new site for me and a few of us are sailing / camping there this weekend. 2. Feb. 2 Texas A&M Sailing Club / Brazos Valley Sailing Club- group sail cruise leader- John C. Lofgren location: Lake Somerville, Tx http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/park/lakesome/lakesome.htm 3. March-open 4. April- There are plans forming for a group sail at Canyon Lake, Tx. The Canyon Lake Yacht Club ( CLYC )is interested in helping promote / sponsor a small boat gathering. Cruise contact: Jim Williams ( CLYC member ) http://swf67.swf-wc.usace.army.mil/canyon/RecParks.htm 5. May-open I'll be in the Kemah / Clear lake area the week of May 20-24 for business and am planning putting the boat in the water for the week. Come and join me for a day or two, sail in the bay, local area. http://www.seabrook-shipyard.com/ 6. May- or June Sabine Lake? 7. I'm looking forward to hearing your ideas.

Thanks, Larry, I had seen that post also, but my boat is the more recent version with the teak toerail and no attachment points on it.

SCA Article
by Howard A 28 Jan '02

28 Jan '02

A couple of interesting articles in the current SCA (Small Craft Advisor). One on Shane St. Clair, who sailed an 18' Capri from CA to HI. Another on sailing Perdido Pass in Fl. Reading about rough water trips and sailing in FL reminded me of some posts from about a year ago, when there was discussion on the list about sailing out of Key West to the Dry Tortugas. I think it might have been Doug King et al. Anyway, for those involved in that adventure, you might find this interesting: http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/Forest/2727/flicka_v_lastvoyage.html Jobst is from St. Louis. A nice fellow to visit with. Howard
