Hello all,
I'm Ed and my wife Lori and I are relatively new (owned for a few years but not sailed all of them) owners of a very well kept 1983 O'Day 25. We have named her "INITIUM," Latin for Beginning.
We bought her from the Hudson River Nautical Museum on Roundoubt in Kingston. Sailed her as she was for a couple years and now we are doing "some work" on her to freshen up and or improve.
We are doing the work ourselves and since we suffer amateur status on this topic find it slow going but anticipate it being worth the efforts.
Anyways, We are very excited and while not likely to be able to attend with boat the event this year we may make a genuine attempt to drive down.
We live in Oneonta, NY and sail Otsego lake in Cooperstown, just up the road.
Please add us to your group's mailing list and feel free to share our address and info around to the group.
Say hi and if we can help let us know.
I sent an email to "Capn Pete" with a request to be on your mailing list and our contact info as well.
We REALLY look forward to learning this whole sailing/ ownership thing.
If you are ever headed our way say hi.
Ed & Lori
