Sceptic,
Very cool!! Thanks for taking the time to do this. I've never had the chance to see me underway, neat!!
Who is going to play me in the movie?
The way you are running it will have to be Clint Eastwood. He would be the only one tough enough. On the other hand. would the actor being able to hold his pee be more important?

I'm going with the pee talent. I guess that would rule out Pee Wee Herman, Had to do it
Daddyo, if you can come up with lines li!ke that, you should play yourself!
Daddyo,
It was my pleasure, In a email you said you could see my little DeFever when you went by, so I’m sure you understand why we went just a mile or two to the public park to take the pictures - no trees, and no boats in the way. We only waited 10 mins.
I consider it our first attempt. Several of our fellow DeFever owners will be coming by soon.
Hope to get better at it.
Mike

I have been using the mobile app to post pics recently and I realize now that it is rubbish
As you can see from these the only way to go is the long way of camera to computer, etc. Sorry for the other poor quality stuff.

The images look fine on my droid
Did you moor just north of the bridge?
Looks like 2-4, showers and 10-15 knot winds from the southwest today. Too bad you can't throw up a mainsail on that puppy...

You are too modest.
It's been a blast to see all the pics underway. I was 30 miles out of Raleigh when I realized I left the Canon at home this past weekend in Oriental. Just had to make due with the iPhone. But wished I had the Canon and my assortment of lenses.
Keep snapping. Pics much appreciated.

Yep, just beside the bridge. Going out at Jacksonville. The next big project is exactly that. I'm going to put a mast on where there was one originally albeit smaller and install a rather large furling genoa. The mast will include a crows nest, etc. It's a win/win on so many levels. 2-3knts boat speed, roll resistance, high mounted antenna, look out, and just really cool!

That may be a first. A sail boat fishing with outriggers deployed. Never saw that one before.

Hopefully you'll catch the St John's river on an outgoing tide.
The mast idea sounds great. I'm sure everyone wants pics of it when completed.
Enjoy your day.

Mark,
Hopefully I'll have a contract on one of my houses by the time you get settled in up north and then we can go boat shopping! Good luck and be safe, we'll be watching.
