Title: Confusion...
Post by: CapnK on February 05, 2008, 10:02:08 PM
WHEN DID FRANK GET A COM-PAC 25???

I *totally* missed that, until I saw the pics of the raft up with Faith, and thought - Hey, that's not a Flicka stern!

Search is revealing nothing... What's the deal, Frankie??? :D

I am paying the duty and leaving Jubilee in Bahamas.I was afraid that with the Flicka,in a year or 2 we would regret not having just a 'lil igger' boat so we could have the occasional visiter.The Flicka is a perfect singlehander or couple boat...but even 3 would be a crowd.Realizing once the duty was paid we'd be commited to the boat..the compac made sence.Lots of opening ports,lots of teak inside and best part for Bahamas (or St Lucie Canal) only 30inch draft.I know it won't be a rocket to windward, but I've sailed a cat boat and a flicka  ;)   So now I have a big boat @ 25ft!!

Fair winds,

Congratulations Frank!!

I'm looking for a 25, and I went straight to the source.... Yep, I'm here in Florida with Gerry and Rich Hutchins. Gerry tells me the last CP25 to be built just went to the Bahamas... And I thought, that lucky stiff, I wonder who got it.....

That would be you Frank if yours is new!!

With two registered in the Bahamas, only 50 remain stateside for me to find one. This won't be easy....

I took some pictures at the Com-Pac world headquarters and will post a story when my internet improves... Right now I'm stepping into a 'MouseTrap'  ;D
