The economy went bad, I started passing the word on the net and over at HHN, and a bunch of catamarans showed up. The reason, of course, is that workboat slips tend to be wide... and shallow. Yup, some days I can't get out, perhaps a few every few winters, but as a cat, she doesn't lean.<br /><br />I love the quiet of winter; I'll go overnight somewhere next weekend, I think.Drew Fryehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06013965677534522281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399150767029697926.post-6127587041928557082012-01-15T14:51:01.919-05:002012-01-15T14:51:01.919-05:00Fantastic blog, Drew.

The weather was beautiful, and it was a fantastic day to sail.<br /><br />My marina is too shallow to leave the boat there in the winter - when wind and tide work together, some of the sips dry out, so I'm hauled at Shipwright 'til March or April.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to reading though your archives.<br /><br />Rick BaileyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
