Bob, I wish I had a crystal ball. If I knew it was just me and me alone living on a boat I'd get another LH boat, probably the Falmouth Cutter. I still think they are one of the most beautiful boats out there. But I think while I still enjoy fairly good health I'm going to stretch and see if I can't handle something in the 38-40. I've been looking at Baba's, Tayana's, Endeavor's, and Hans Christians. They all have some sort of aft cabin and other than the Endeavor all seem to be robust blue water ladies. They all sail like slugs, but I never could figure out that there racin' stuff. Now, if you can put a separate vee berth in an aft cabin NS, that'd be the ticket!!

She should sell quickly. I know you're going to miss her. So now you've had two Lyle Hess boats; one of my Nor'Sea 27s that you had for years and you moved down to one of my M_17s. Now BACK UP to a larger live-aboard.......hmmm..good luck to you and keep us informed on what you eventually decide. See you in Annapolis next year. :-) Be well Bob www.montgomeryboats.com (949) 489-8227

Tom, No I haven't picked one out yet. I'm also trying to sell my place here in NC. I'm looking for a bluewater cruiser that has an aft and foreward cabin that I can single hand. If any of you have any suggestions please zing 'em to me.

Good luck to you Joe. Have you decided on a liveaboard boat? I'd be interested to hear what you have in mind. My wife would like some lead time for when I move aboard...to fraternize with her lawyer I suspect... Tom

Some time ago I told you all that I was going to sell SeaFrog in order to scratch that itch I've had for years to live aboard. Well, reluctantly I finally put her on the market. You can see it at http://sailingtexas.com/201301/smontgomery17124.html I have no plans as yet of leaving this group. You all have been a great inspiration to do some of the things that I did on SeaFrog. Take care all. Joe M17 SeaFrog
