Oct-Nov 2017 aboard Moon Dancer

Continued, beginning with Christmas Eve on Hawksbill Cay through Staniel Cay and beyond

This album covers a lot of sailing. First we sailed Aria from Little River to Nassau with Tom Leonard and Gary Miller. Later, while I remained aboard Aria, the family plus my old college pal, Larry Knipp, joined me at various times throughout the winter.

Conrad and I hiked 8 days through Bavaria beginning in Oy-Mittleberg and ending in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

Tammy and I, sans kids, visit Beaufort, Morehead City, Bald Head Island and Southport

Instead of a bushing, I used two custom-made steel plates to repair an elongated hole that supports the alternator.

Photo essay of my project to replace heat exchanger, and make several other upgrades to the fresh water and sea water loops.

Tammy and I sailed to Cape Lookout Bight, then returned via Wrightsville Beach to Bald Head Island, where the kids and dog joined us. Lovely family vacation!

Christmas 2009

The boat was in Milford, CT when I bought it. We sailed it home... well, motored mostly, as there was no wind, and we got the mainsail jammed in the mast on the first day. We came ashore in Atlantic City to take on more fuel.
