Aug 2011 - We found the foremast via Craigslist, outside of East St. Louis, Illinois. Only problem is it was actually 47 feet long and not the advertised 40 feet. The drive back was less than 50 mph making for a 23 hour long day. The up side is that the Suburban gets much better mileage at 50 mph. “There's no thrill in easy sailing when the skies are clear and blue, there's no joy in merely doing things which any one can do. But there is some satisfaction that is mighty sweet to take, when you reach a destination that you never thought you'd make” - unknown
Starting on the Hull
Sept 2011 Back to Vancouver Island again. This time to bring Home a Hundested Controllable Pitch Propeller system. ...well, most of it.
Oct 2011 Cutting out the bow and transom and the curved part of the hull.
Oct 2011 Flipping over her 5 ton half hull, and a bit of excitement.
