Good News - we're looking at buying a cottage!
Bad News - The water's too shallow for the boat.
Good News - the property we are considering is very affordable!
Bad news - the property costs plus yacht club fees are too high for our 'toys' budget
Good News - I can get a daysailor!
Bad News - I have lotsa spares to clear out.

Anyone looking for 'stuff' should let me know. I have anchors, a bimini, storm sail, all kinds of stuff I never got around to using or stuff I have doubles of. Watch this space.

Once I get a few small jobs done on her, I'll add the boat and trailer proper to the listing.

Sad to let Iris go, but excited to move along to new adventures.

Take a minute to register your boat with the association!!

Sad news - you are selling your boat!
Ambiguous news - this is the year of downsizing, I think

I'm already saving for a new 21feet trailersailer, almost 90% done.

Good luck with selling.

I'd go back to my Luger 16 if it came with a cottage on the water!

Congrats!

Chris,

Sounds really nice! Congratulations!

I'm sure you will let us know when you've gone swimmin' off the daysailor in the cold and reminisced about Iris!

I refer to our C25 <i>as</i> a cottage on the lake.

Yeah, I want to buy some spares to mix with my spares that I will sell to someone looking for spares in the future.



Good luck with all the coming changes in your life Chris!

Sorry to hear you're selling Iris Chris, can you move into the Admiralty if you buy a day-sailor?

I've always said if we lived on the water, I'd be much more inclined to sail my old Venture cat or San Juan 21 than our C-250. I think in a perfect world where we lived right on the water, I'd probably have a 20' Sol Cat, a dry suit and a place to launch it easily.

I'll be watching for stuff to add to my stuff to sell to someone else later as well.

Thanks everyone, its looking lika a fun change, but we have to get our ducks in a row, which I am not doing very well. Too much fixing going on at the house to get anything else underway.

A few folks have asked about the Bimini. Tonight I'll try to get some pics posted. I also have a couple engines to go and an anchor or two. Not sure what else I'll dig up.

Hi Dusty - no roller furler. I wasn't planning on selling off any sails, but if things sit too long, I may rethink that.

Massive price drop on the bimini - I didn't realize what West Marine was selling them for - First $150 (plus shipping) gets it.

Is the bimini still available? I am looking for one for a 1985 standard rig.

Thanks.

Nope, I spent the weekend moving 3 tons of concrete to the dump. I'm getting there. Too many fires in the iron right now.
