Did you ever move forward with this?  We have an old CD28 project that stalled out in the driveway, and I've often thought of turning it into a junk rig project!

Nothing wrong with the old prop a little duct tape can't fix.

Nice and purty, too.

What's the size and pitch? I just remembered I have a couple extra on the Islander...

Sailed back up to Manjack for some solitude.
It's been busy socially lately...
Nothing like a beach and anchorage to yourself to recover and recharge.

Yes those angular portlights make that T31 looks a *lot* like your 24!

Sad to hear that aboot the cottage. After that experience I'm gonna guess you probably won't be building another there, eh? (<- I'm speaking Canadian, in case you didn't notice.) ;D

Yeah, this getting older thing is kinda surprising. The body ages past the brain. Or around it, or something. Whatever it is, I sure don't think I am as old as a calendar says I is. ;)

Another note is that no one in the picture is under 60.

I'll join that group this July. Who'da thunk it?

Have you been up Nunjack way, seen the house you built lately?

Actually anchored there now :)
The folks I sold to don't maintain it well. I walked over a month back and was very disappointed... just wanted to start working. Doubt I'll check it again...
So, you're joining the 60+ "club". I've got the road plowed well ahead for ya :)

Lincoln Park is the NW cove, same as where I'd built the cottage years ago.
I'm currently anchored in the next bay SE that faces SW
That boat is a Tanzer 31.
Way bigger than Deja Vu (24)  but similar profile for sure! Typical 80s thing....
Hope your well Capt K!

So I went to Google Maps and pulled up Nunjack, looked at the photos there (someone named it "Lincoln Park"), and this one was one of them. Almost a sistership to "Deja Vu"...?
