I've made several changes to the website. 1. There is a *new Photo Gallery* here: http://yankee30.org/photo. All Yankee 30 owners can have a photo album....
Well, I have sailed on a Yankee, and I am most satisfied. Andy Stover took me sailing on his boat, Avocet, out of his place in Harpswell, ME. What a beautiful...

I'm slowly realizing that getting #70 in the water this season might not happen. Which isn't as bad as it sounds - I'm able to take my Dad's boat for a cruise,...
The hatch has always had some resistance when I first slide to close, or toward the end of the slide to open. Some resistance might be good to keep the hatch...
