John, I always liked the looks of ther helmsman boats.

I’ve watched you build and then sell I’m thinking two Nordhavn’s and now a Helmsman. Reading about your boat building adventures makes for fantastic entertainment on my part, and I suspect that it somehow fulfills your boating need, so it is very good!

Myself, I joined TF back in 2011 looking for a Coastal Cruiser to retire on and cruise the West Coast Alaska to Mexico. I settled on a Bayliner 4788 that fall and have spent the time since then fitting it out, paying for it, and skill building to make my journey.

Now I’m in the home stretch with retirement less than two years away. I’m even starting spanish lessons and studying routes, anchorages and weather patterns along the Baja Coast and the sea of Cortez in preparation.

All I can do is wish you the best of experiences, and I will continue to read your boat building threads with interest. When you get the boat you choose to go cruising built and fitted out, perhaps we can share an anchorage and a beer down south.
