Title: Doug & Ruth aboard Triska (Alberg 29)
Post by: Jack Tar on December 22, 2005, 12:54:42 PM
Jack Tar here. My wife Ruth and I sail out of Tacoma Washington. Our Yar boat is an Alberg 29 called Triska. We have owned and sailed her for 3 years. We have cruised Puget Sound and Canadian waters. We also belong to PSCC (Puget Sound Cruising club) and sail with the PNW chapter of the Latts and Atts cruising group. www.latsandatts.com   I look forward to chatting and posting ideas.

Dang but that Carl Alberg knew how to draw some nice lines! Good pics, Jack!

(Disclaimer: He drew my boat, too. I am hopelessly prejudiced and pro-Carl, and have been since sometime in the late 70's. ;D)

Ruth and Doug - Jack Tar

     I just knew you would have a well found boat by the informative posts you make.  Please keep sharing.

The Edge are you going to make it to the Lats & Atts party this year. I have read many of your posts on their board. I only have one question. All the traveling you do why dont you post some pic's for us to enjoy. LOL

Hey Doug,

I feel I almost know you. Have followed your comments on the other site and you've commented to some of mine here. You used to live near where I live now - and used to live in Vancouver. Went out with a gal that used to work at Cutters (near the Pike Place market) don't know if its still there - this is back a ways. Small world.

My neighbour sails an Alberg 29. Thought I'd run outside (fairly warm here right now) and snap you a picture of how his boat looks for the winter.

Cheers!

John

hay I used to live on summit ave., eerr is it summit street..?. anyway I used to take a hefty walk on saterdays too pike place market. it seems that I wondered in to a place out there named Mike's Chilly bar...I think that's the name..and I thought I found a great hide out, but returned home to N.C. before I could find out. ofcourse this was in 1988-1989.
thanks,
Bill

Pikes Place is still there. There is also a nice little marina there called Belltown. It's been there a few years now. Nice place to stop on the way back from the San Juans . On the waterfront is also a great store called Pirates Plunder. I love stopping in for a look about. Heading up there on Saturday for the boat show and party.

Cool boat; I currently have a Precision 21, and am plotting and scheming for the future.

Oh, if anyone is afraid to go on deck on Triska, then they have Triska Deck a phobia...:D
