Anyone thinking of going this weekend? - I haven't decided which day I'll be going but I'll be there. I'll be the guy wearing the O'day Owners.com hat - sister site to Catalina Owners.com - owned a little O'day before the Catalina so I moderatd the O'day site - but I'd meet anyone who said they'd be there for a beer if you knew where you'd be and when you'd be there.

Justin: We had a Day Sailer II before the C-25... Which "little O'Day" did you have? We enjoyed ours for about 20 years--had it up on plane many times, other times crashing through some of Long Island Sound's roughest stuff, and more often just gliding toward the sunset. It looked and worked practically like new when we sold it to a guy on Cape Cod after buying the Cat.

Our first boat after we moved to Colorado was an ODay Javelin.
Bought it from a friend of the family that was moving to the Seattle area to live on 35 footer. Had a good time with that little 14 footer, sailed different and smaller mountain lakes. That was 2 sailboats and about 11 years ago.

I had a DS I, actually a Spindrift hull, built after O'day went to the DS II. Great little boat. Hard to right is dumped it, though. :)

I'd buy it back if I could find it.

It was a friend who had an O' Day 20 that got me back into sailing after 20 years. He let me have the key to it and after a few weeks came across a C-22. Almost everytime I'd go out I would run into Paul out there on s/v Thelma.

Kurt -

I'm heading down from Brunswick on Saturday morning. Going last weekend didn't work out for logistic reasons. I have gone the last two years, though, and its fun.

Nothing in the water but there are tons of boats to climb around. Most of the major sailboat manufacturers are represented - the boats are actually brought by their dealers. Last year there were Catalina, Hunter, Cabo Rico, Dehler, Beneteau, Tartan, Island Packet, Jenneau, J-boats, and a bunch of others. There are also killer deals on all sorts of gear and equipment.

I think its worth the $9, especially in the depths of winter. At least today its warm - 15 degrees at the moment in Brunswick.
