I went to there web site hoping to find something like this. Love the sound of that engine.
A few years ago, and before I was aware of the David B, I heard that sound off in the distance but she was too far away to recognize her. Later I made the connection. Quite distinctive from other vessels.

Jon. You kept track of the sailboats while Master of a Lake Ship. I thought that was contrary to the rules.
:yikes:

I had a friend who was first officer aboard an LNG tanker that ran between India and Japan. He told me a story about the Sun rising one morning, after leaving port the evening before, to reveal the mast of a sailboat wedged into the gangway superstructure that they had failed to pull in.
My father believes this story to be more of an urban legend. How are you sailing at night and not have a radio to tell the ship they are stealing your rigging?

NICE!

She is a real beauty and a unique design. I've not seen a boat like her before.

Thanks for posting, JS
