    We sail out of Fay's Boat Yard on Smith Cove in Lake Winnepesaukee(?).

    foredeck. And by the adults,Marie and I, trying to keep their young
    son from being the subject of a man overboard drill.  We have no

    FREUDIAN SLOOP - WSE5362
    
                     1974 Northern 25 (which looks like a C&C 25 since that

                     Marcy McWilliams on 14-Mar-1987 - which is why not too
                     much money will be spent on the boat the boat this
                     year.)
                     
                     Mostly we day sail from Portsmouth/Isle of Shoals to
                     Gloucester. Occasionaly overnights to Salem and

                     Again I don't listen to the radio too much when in
                     port, but we do listen for CG alerts while at sea.

    Moored in Beverly Harbor. You'll find us somewhere between Rockport
    and Plymouth on the weekends and between Plymouth/Provincetown and
    Block Island on an extended cruise.
    
    You may also find us anchored close to a beach (Magnolia , Brace's
    Cove - Gloucester) as we're breaking in a new crewmember (3 yrs
    old) who still yearns for sandcastles. Look for the brown dodger
    and bimini top.

    "Pegasus Too" (Our first boat was "Pegasus")
    COM-PAC 19-II
    Sail # 311

    Some weekays: Various co-workers from MK
    

    MarGin is a 1978 Hobie 16 with Tequlia Sunrise sails.  It lives
    on a beach in the southwest part of Lake Griffin near Leesburg,
    Florida where I live and sometimes work.
    
    My house is a few hundred yards up the shore from where I keep my boats
    which is the reason that I live here in Florida.  I have a racing
    single scull (Kascpher 1971) and a 16 foot canoe so I am all set no
    matter what the wind.
    
    I normally single hand the Hobie so I don't have a radio call sign
    given that both hands and feet are full when I'm out on the trap
    screaming across the gators out on the lake.  Of course, most VHF
    sets aren't designed to take the kind of fun only available on a
    cat.
    
    Once you sail on a cat you don't want to back to a monohull,

     Usually found somewhere around Portsmouth N.H.  Lived aboard
     for  17 out of the last 24 months at Badger's Island Kittery
     Me with a PRO 350 tucked in the V-birth.   Used  mostly  for
     day  sails  and a few weekend jaunts.  Would be found on the
     water more at night rather than days.  Have  been  known  to
     throw a few lobster parties on Smuttynose.  A blue Achillies
     is usually found trailing behind  or  somewhere  nearby  but
     we're  in the process of building a 12' mahogany/west system
     sailing dinghy soon to be named the "LEEWARD".

          Crew consists mainly of friends who show  up  and  have
     been known to single hand on a number of occasions.

     Sun shines best on open water

    Wish there were more of you reading this notes file from Washington
    D.C. area.
    
    Allen your boat is not the only one with the tiller, mine has one
    too. I enjoy tiller more, because at the mooring it can be lifted
    providing you with very functional cockpit area.
    
    Igor, Iwona.
    
    Happy sailing, might see you one day.

    BRIES - Pearson 25    +  briesje
    
    White, call sign WSA7034 (don't listen much)
    Winthrop, Mass.                            
    
    I am a recent transplant from a 15ft sailing dinghy and the Lowlands.
    Still trying to get used to rocks everywhere and the absence of boats 
    with leeboards. Am usually somewhere between Hull and the North
    Channel. This notes file has been a great help to me.

    TRIUMPH - Catalina 25  Steve and Sandy Taft, sometimes accompanied
    by one or more siblings.  Light blue hull. dark blue boot top and

    as often as time permits.  Can also be found on Wednesday evenings
    crewing aboard the Phase II, an Engsin from the Bristol Yagh{ Club.
    
    A well kept secret, but I represented Digital Equipment in Perth
    last August when I refitted the Micro Vaxes for the Sail America
    Syndicate on the Betsy and in their offices.  I also had the good
    fortune while there to handle a service call on one of the systems
    on the Kook's 12.   It was great fun.

    
       Contentment- Mary Ellen, Fred and liquid refreshments, Contentment
    is a 22' Catalina who is inappropriately named because we are now
    looking at larger boats!! You can usually find us fighting our way
    out of the Merrrimack River from Newburyport.

    BEAU is moored in Wychmere Harbor, Harwichport, MA.  She's a 32'
    S&S wood cutter, white topsides with (old) teak decks.  If you're
    on the south side of Cape, stop by.  The best way to get my attention
    is a Hi, Hello, or even a Hey You.
    
    Sandy Kimball

    
    INSTEAD OF    Catalina 22
    
    Crewed by Mary & Dick, although after early August we will be joined

    Dark brown sail cover, tan topsides - moored at Pickering Wharf
    in Salem, MA.
    
    Can be found sailing from Cape Ann to Cohasset, MA - Dreaming of
    a wider range on a bigger boat, maybe next year when the new crew
    member has his/her sea legs.  Say HI if you see us.

    ZENDIA - Ed and Carol; Kerri and Lindsay (and probably at least
    	     one of their friends). 
    
    Sea Sprite 23 - Dark green w/red bottom; white cabin. Fractional
    		    rig.
    
    Moored at Wessagussett YC in Weymouth. Sail pretty much in Boston
    Harbor. If you should hear a boisterous, but off key, rendition of
    Row, Row Your Boat or Old MacDonald, look for us.

    Not another entry, but a side note to ZENDIA (Ed Thomas' entry)...
    
    You'll know its Ed if the captain is wearing red pants with black
    whales all over them.  As a secondary check, look for the "Admiral"
    sweatshirt from Bliss Marine.  :-)

    "STEEL STRINGS"
    
    Cape Dory Typhoon with sail logo of TY (just like all the rest),
    an older (1973) weekender model that has yet to carry me out for
    a weekend.  Usually daysailing outside of Salem Sound or inside
    on light air days.  Mooring is at Salem Willows Y.C. on the Danvers
    River.  Usually sailing with a friend or two and (when lucky) my
    nine year old daughter who I fashion as my sailing buddy.
    
    True story about the name.  I played guitar with a couple of friends
    at one time and noticed their playing was louder and bluesier with
    steel strings than I could produce with my Brasilian classical.
    So off I went to the music store to get steel strings.  
    
    "Won't work on that guitar.  It'll pull the bridge off.  What you need is a
    new guitar like this Yamaha over her."  Looking through the $150-300
    models and got thinking the "Want Advertiser" might have a second
    hand one for a lot less.  
    
    So I got that week's copy, looked through the guitar section and then 
    thought, "Wonder if there are any good deals on ......."
    
    The name was a natural outcome.

	CAVATINA - Maxi 84 (28'), sail # 410.

	Crew: Marit and Knut. Late July/first August a new crew member will
	      hopefully join in.

	Maxi (swedish) is a very common boatmodel in Northern Europe. It's
	our fist boat and we have had it for one year now.

	We mostly sail in the inner parts of Oslofjorden. Weekends we try
	to reach as far out of the fjord as possible.
	The area is very good for sailing, especially for newcombers 
	the fjord is a nice sailground.
	Last summerholiday we sailed down the south coast of Norway to Arendal.
	This year our holiday will be shorter, we'll probably have a short
	trip down the coast to Sweden.
        Sailors from Oslo mostly go either down the south coast of Norway
	or down the east coast of Sweden, may be combined with a trip over
	to Denmark, in their holidays.

	If someone should be around feel free to contact me. My VHF number
	is LN4738.

	- Happy sailing -

	Knut.
	

    
    
    SEA WALKER - CATALINA 27, Sail #5560
    
    We are moored at Handy Boat in Falmouth, Me. (Casco Bay), about the
    most beautiful cruising area in North America. My wife Sue Ann and
    I can be found just cruising around Casco Bay on weekends or downeast
    on our summer vacation. Give us a yell if your in the area, BTW,
    Handy Boat is an excellent jumping off point for cruising further
    east. Sea Walker has a tan hull with a blue dodger.     
    

    WAVEDANCER - Catalina 34, sail #481, White hull, red boot, grey
    mainsail cover. 
    
    We just upgraded from a C&C24 (had it 7 years) last Friday (June 19th).
    Slip at Edgewood YC, just south of Providence: about 41 6.5N  71 23.5W
    (chart no. 13221).
    
    C&C was sailed in Lake Lanier for a year before moving up to NE,
    where we first sailed out of Salem, MA, then moved to Naragansett
    two years ago.  Most of our sailing is week ends in the bay; this
    year we're targeting the islands.

    We thought we were going to rename the boat when it was bought,
    but decided not to after all!  So despite what you may have read
    earlier in the registry (492.37) wherein a different boat-name was
    registered ...

    	   Single hand every other weekend (my wife a nurse). Ann
    	   and I on opposite weekends. Have been restoring and
    	   sailing her for past three years, mostly in Narr. Bay.
    	   But Pt. Judith, Block & Buzzards. Have not established a
    	   regular crew yet, so give me a shout. Need a couple of you
    	   folks to challange me so I can really learn sail management.
    
    	   You will see me on the bay most weekends, right into November!
    

    1972 Mariner 32 - 32' Ketch
    
    My wife, 1 yr old daughter, our dog an I liveaboard year round at
    Constitution Marina in Charlestown and love it. It's time to start
    thinking about a bigger one, though.
    
    Sailing grounds are Boston Harbor, Mass. Bay and Cape. 
    
    Spend most of my time fixing instead of sailing. Bought it as a
    handyman special in order to gain experience for my next project
    which is to restore turn of the century schooner or Maine Coaster.
    Next time, though, I won't try to live on it while I'm restoring.
    
    Next year I plan on getting out more. I want to try going north
    of Boston for a change.

    MOODY 28 - 28 ft Bilge Keeler
    
    We (Pete & Jackie) sail out of Chichester Harbour on South Coast
    of UK. We have had CIRCE for just over a year. We weekend cruise
    in the Solent area and in August made it over to St Malo on the
    French coast via the Channel Islands. [CIRCE was a classical Greek
    Godess who occasionally turned men into swine, nothing to do with
    my skippering.....] We are still hoping for a season that we don't
    spend sailing in our foul weather gear.
                    
    

    SECOND WIND
    
    HUNTER 37 CUTTER - On Jackson Creek, off Piankatank River in
    mid-Chesapeake bay (Deltaville, Va).
    
    Used primarily for cruising mid Bay from March thru November.  Draft
    of 5.4 ft makes for outstanding cruising with over 100 creeks within
    5 hours range.  Great for weekends.  
    
    Extended cruises to Annapolis, St. Michaels, Oxford to the north
    and Norfolk to the south.

	SWEET P - Dave and Sue Pease.  
	16' Compac. Cream hull and deck, with brown trim.

	I work in Augusta, Maine, and we had it in Great Pond for the last
	2 years.  This year it will be in Ebenecook harbor at Boothbay
	Region Boatyard. (just south of the west end of Townsend Gut).  We
	want to get some salt experience before moving up to something
	that we can cruise Downeast for a week or 2 with.

    SYNAPSE - John Papa
    37' Islander Sloop.
    
    I've been living aboard for a year and a half in the Los Angeles
    Harbor Downtown Long Beach Marina (across from the Queen Mary).
    
    I weekend sail across the San Pedro Channel to Santa Catalina 
    Island quite often, have had extended cruises north around the
    Channel Islands, and south as far as Ensenada, Mexico.
    
    I do most of the sailing with my fiancee Michell Vincent.
    
                      crew of two, 
                        sailing together,
                          on the pacific blue.

    
    
    CAPRICE-Geoff Burr
    47' Teak Ketch
    
    This will be our first summer moored in the Harpswell, ME area in
    the cove between East and West Cundy's Point (behind Rogue Island).
    
    Caprice is a German designed heavy displacement ketch built in
    Indonesia in 1962.  She has been around the world 2 1/2 times (not
    with me) and is in the process of being restored.  Assuming that
    we do get her in the water sometime this year, our cruising grounds
    will be the Isles of Shoals to Bar Harbor.
    
    Give us a shout!

BEGINNINGS
    
    1982 O'Day 28 sloop, white hull with blue stripes. Moored in Salem
    for the past 4 seasons. Sail with my wife Cynthia, daughter Sarah
    (11 years old), and various adventurous "friends" who believe we
    understand what we are doing.
    
    Our sailing area (currently) ranges from Rockport to Plymouth. 
    

    EHECATL - 1983 WATKINS 27
    
      Moored in Salem Harbor (Pickering Wharf). I'm easy to spot 
    with a beige hull, brown sail cover and dodger. Stop by!
    
     If not cruising around Mass. Bay, I'll be sitting on the mooring
    drinking too much beer.
            
     For anyone wondering about the name. Ehecatl is the second sign
    of the Aztec calendar, meaning wind. Those who were born under this
    sign were prophesied to be fickle, inconsistent, lazy, enemies of
    toil, addicted to merrymaking, rovers with no roots nor rest.
    Sure seems appropriate:-)

    SVOBODA - 1974 C&C 25
    
    Moored in Padanarum (just west of New Bedford).  Yellow
    boat with large SVOBODA grapgics on sides...
    
    Usually cruising around the holes in Elizabeth Islands...
    Woods Hols/ the Vinyard once ina while...
    
    Crew is Beau and wife Chris and 5 1/2 year old son
    Colin....Can sometimes be reached on WYA6138 but usually
    have the radio turned off....would love to find cruisers
    with similar aged kids for gunkholing.
    
    

    "Toy #3" catalina 30  #347
    
    berthed at south beach marina pier 40 sf.ca. this is my first year
    with the boat and i am having a great time on the bay...now if the
    winds would settle down to something reasonable i'd be all set.

    "The Distance" 26' Maxi sloop
                                                          
                              white hull
                            red bootstrap
                              blue bottom
    
         Just bought the boat last week. A couple of days working on
     the hull and it'll be ready for the water. This year the boat
     will be kept in Apponagansett Bay (South Dart. Mass). I'll be
     found anywhere in Buzzards Bay down to the Vineyard. Look for
     the yellow baseball cap with Cap'n Zigzag on the brow. Will be
     flying one flag with a crooked line on it (the zigzag flag) and
     another with a big parrothead on it. It won't be mistaken for
     anything else. Hope to see you there.

identify.
