Fun to look at. Hope he has a covered slip. Hurts my brain to even contemplate the required maintenance if exposed to the sun.

No time to brew a pot of coffee if you're going to keep up with all that wood.

Like a lot of pretty ladies, she fell into bad company, wore shabby clothes, and hit bottom before someone helped her back up.

And a lot of time and effort went into getting the Gardners back into shape. This vessel is no dock queen. The owners use it regularly and cruise it as if it is a real boat.

I for one enjoy seeing this and other cousin vessels kept up and some effort put into maintaining the roots of our hobby.

In strolling Coal Harbour the past few days the question as to where will the big Searays be in 75 years arose. Hurrah Deer Leap

That's just the eye candy I always hope will anchor in the harbor as I enjoy an adult beverage and place it on my teak trivet.
