Hello Gentlemen, New member here, I hope you don't mind me jumping into the conversation. I just moved up to a 1984 C-27 from a 1973 Oday-23 two weeks ago. Unfortunately my Oday was sold after only a week on craige's list and the 27 is land-locked for the rest of this season, so feeding my sailing addiction will have to be put on hold until next spring. I picked up the 27 from a person at my marina for a deal that I just couldn't refuse. Refurbishing older fiberglass boats and selling them to move up has been a hobby of mine for seven years. Hopefully the C-27 will be my last project for many years to come. This boat is the perfect size for the Admiral and I and it has everything that we've been looking for in a boat. We both caught the sailing bug and the only thing our last boat lacked was enough room to enjoy our weekend getaways. I have a small web site with some pictures of the new C-27 on it. Feel free to check it out and make sure to look at some of my other boats that I've finished over the years. http://baysailorbill.spaces.live.com/ HAPPY SAILING,Bill Pellegrino (BaySailerBill) Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island
EMAILING FOR THE GREATER GOODJoin me From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: RE: catalina27-talk: The view from boatsDate: Thu, 4 Sep 2008 00:08:13 -0400 “Nice” is such a subjective term, I find that when I am on my boat I am relaxed. My mind clears of other distractions and I am at ease. Sure there are times when things ramp up tension and stressful, but even those are less stressful while onboard as compared to thinking about them later. This is true even when I am just down working on the boat. Of course sailing makes it a more relaxing experience.
