I'm sure impressed with the trophy Jim Randolph made, that I claimed for sixth place. It's obvious Jim put a lot of effort into it. I felt kinda bad about the...
If you want a real bed you're probably out of luck near PT. But they'll always squeeze you in to camp at the fairgrounds. You can probably find a motel room in...
After looking at Jim's Snow Baby today I'm convinced that he got the transom wrong. But of course he won't listen to me. ;o) I suspect there may be some other...
MapQuest will probably send you over by Bremerton and then back across Hood Canal. That may be a few minutes faster than going down the west side of Hood Canal...

That poster was to make up a bit for the shiny new sail you got - but didn't use. Andrew there are those who place in races, and those who place in the rest of...
As I remember my issue with my transom, When I lofted, the waterline was used as the baseline and all of the measurements were taken vertically from there. All...

Just like in the lofting book but the expanation of how and why it is this way may help as in the book. Jon I can just see David G trying to figuer it out and...
Thorne, Injured forearm tendon? What... are you getting old? They told you you'd go blind, or grow hair on your palms - but they didn't warn you about tendon...
Who thinks they might be going? I'm planning on going (barring any last minute car issues) I might just bring the PDR... or I may bring both Sisu & Shredder. ...

In all honesty, the Big Lagoon messabout might be better than Timothy. I dont want to over-sell this and have you disappointed. Main reason it is so good is...
