Sounds like a fun trip, but we do need pictures. (Some of us are stuck at home.  :(  )
I'm Dean, and my boat is a 1969 Westerly Nomad. We're in East Texas (Tyler) for now.

CharlieJ, Any pics from your cruise?

Yes, but I've been running hard since returning. Two trips to Houston for Mom business and two trips up to east Texas to work (a week each) on family property, since I'm the oldest left.

I've put over 2000 miles on my Jeep since coming back from the cruise.

I'll work on getting some pics up this week.

Splashed this morning, after showing her how to rig the boat.

We had a very nice sail up to the marina, making 5- 5.3 under working jib and Main. Made it into the marina, got the covers on, boat all buttoned up, JUST as a HEAVY rain storm hit the marina.

Of course, as usual, not a drop at the house Oh, well.

The lady is very happy with the boat, now just has to sell her Catalina 22, so Necessity can move from my slip to hers Tehani is gonna be there soon.

The lady is a very close friend, and is the local Marine agent for this area. Gonna enjoy the boat

Seems like an encouraging time...handing off one boat to a new owner and getting Tehani ready to go. I can appreciate the benefits of keeping-it-simple...

Congrats to you.
