The more I look at all this the more I know (I DON'T KNOW). There are just so many things you can do with sailing. I wish I had gotten the bug along time ago. So we ended up in Chicago looking at a 28Ft Morgan OI. I loved it wow what a boat!! But my wife, well she felt cramped. OK. So it was time to regroup and think this over more. In the mean time I am sanding all the funky milky white stuff off the South Coast and repainting inside. I got the hardware for the rudder and will be working on it. All while rewiring everything from top to bottom. This weekend plans are to build a rack to get it off the trailer as it really needs work to. A 22 ft is what I have and it will do for now. Goal for this summer is to get this as close to the lake as I can. And enroll in a Certified Sailing School. All I need is Time and Money... This won't be a boat for the loop or to sail the Caribbean with but it is good enough to learn on. And with luck catch a lake trout or two.
