Ping.
We live at Lake of the Ozarks in central Missouri.
Two boats in our floating dock. One is a 26 foot pontoon with the 225 Honda OB for power.
21- foot Southcoast sloop mustering in. Request permission to come aboard!
I had several boats over the years while living in Fun City...14, 18, 19 and 22 foot outboards. Moved to WV ten years ago and have had a 14’ Grumman set up for bass. This winter I picked up a 16’ Sylvan that I am presently getting ready for the coming season. Also have a pond prowler that my buddy and I use for float trips on a couple of local rivers.
I’ve been on small boats since I was six. Built a raft and an outrigger log canoe. Owned a sailing dingy or two. Even when I served in the Army, I ended up in the Mobile Riverine Force; more boats! For 30 years, I belonged to an historical reenactment organization which owned reconstructions of Viking boats.:-D
I am available should anyone need help sailing one of these.......... record was 55 knots a couple years ago, may be faster now (??) There are already 100 foot plus hulls and masts sailing on foils with all hulls out of water... I call it water flying!
ultimate sailing
