Hi Rich, Just back from Kodiak Island. Fishing was phenominal! Added a life bird to my list, and saw lotsa BIG bears. Glad to hear that you enjoyed Decorah. It is a nice place, with great people.

Saw the the boat in the Museum on Water Street in Decorah, Iowa. Was sailed by two brothers to Chicago in '33 from Norway via the Canary Islands and Virgin Islands. The boat "Trade Winds" is 25' loa, 9' beam, 3.5 tons, Bermuda rig. They sold the boat to Arthur Andersen, founder of the "Harvard" of accounting firms who in turn donated it to the Museum.
Thanks for your help. We had a terrific fun-filled time in Decorah. Also had pizza at Mabes.
Rich Cottrell
