Title: Who's dat??
Post by: Frank on March 09, 2015, 07:07:16 AM
I've noticed a few ComPac 23's cruising here over the years and thought what a great, super shallow draft Bahamas cruiser. Sitting headroom only...but you're outside most often. Anyhoot...I googled "Compac 23 cruises" and came to a site where a young couple cruised here with their 23. As I looked through the pictures....this ole feller kept showing up. I know I've seen the face before? Post office maybe? Look familiar to anyone???

Just look for the WILD shirts....you'll see him  ::)

Looks like Nassau, on Potter's Key.

Nick and Melissa aboard TuraLura. They've since sold the boat and stopped sailing.

Here (first pic) getting towed back by our dinghy from a snorkel trip at Little Farmers Cay in the Exumas

Second pic, the last time I saw them, leaving Nassau, headed stateside

Hey- they don't wrinkle in a boat locker, and wash easily. ;D

Heh....CJ knows how to "stand out" in a crowd!!

Dam stylish if I do say so!!!!   :D ;) :)




I'm surprised they aren't sailing? But...I know too well how "life" can get in the way.....

Here's another taken just seconds before

and one more. Sails were all hanked on, halyards attached. Pretty sure they made sail as soon as they cleared the bridge
