TY man, shes a skipper20 by southern sails, they built her from 78 to 82. Shes kinda rare, less than 400 built. the hull is based on a norwegian lifeboat with a rounded stern and a high bow, great to keep smokers from sending wakes up your tail and for keeping the boat dry. she has 800 lb concrete keel and I have hadthe gunnelsawash in stormsand she justpops right backup, shes very forgiving.The engine is hidden in a well at the stern. Overall a great, albiet slow sailer, did you notice the anchor guard?

Beautiful shot, beautiful boat. If I had a boat like that it would be hard to get me ashore!Where are you anchored, and if you dont mindwhat are some specs on your boat?

Will be taking her out on big water next month, so there's still hope as long as she doesn't get sea sick.
Ply her with candied ginger, ginger ale ect. Once on the boat keep her occupied with some sort of duty.
Good luck. A happy first mate makes for a happy captain.
