Show us your 2004 model!!!!

[Guest]

Okay, seems that this place has gone to sleep here. In one of the launching threads, someone asked about how many launchings this very selective and special guests has had this year. Well, show me your launching this year. Lets combine them, on one thread, for a later date to add to here. This is , by no means, making light of the previous ones. Maybe, in the contributions, we can also find some finalists for the calendar, too. :wink: I would like to comment on some of the nice photos of sunsets and sunrises, in that other thread, too.

Heck maybe Frank can cross link this to include the B&B site???

My lowly contribution of a 2004 model is as follows, no glits, just guts.

The Alaskan Fleets first mess-about, Mark's new dock 8)

Left to right: The Melina, As You Wish, The Flyer and the Aurorawolf.

Just an editorial note for the previous pic from the Alaskan pirates: all three Weekenders plus Alexander's Amphora are new (all '04?). Wolf is the founding pirate ship in those waters.

Great picture. If one of you have it or can take another picture one of these days, could you post a picture of one of the Weekenders and the Vacationer together so it will show the comparasion of size? The Aurorawolf is a vacationer isn't it?

P Doug,

Here's a pic of Aurora Wolf and As You Wish crossing paths on launch day. I think we were only 10 or 15 ft. apart when we passed.

Barry!!!?? Where are those pictures anyway??? :?

[P Doug (WA)]

Thanks, JMETZNER

The vacationer is quite a bit bigger. Wish I could afford to build one and had the skill to build one.

[Mike Pennington]

You don't need any skill :shock: I proved that You get better as you go :wink:

Barry, do you have Pictures of your sail with Jake? :multi:

I seem to have a bit of problem with posting a pic this evening, so I need to see yours.

[P Doug (WA)]

You don't need any skill :shock: I proved that You get better as you go :wink:

Ya? I'm struggling with a mini-cup!! :?

all three Weekenders plus Alexander's Amphora are new (all '04?).

The Flyer (Brown with white port hole rings) was launched August 2003. It was still lacking paint and trim at launching but still a 2003 model.

Fire Escape was launched on May 7, 2004. With the assistance of Barry and Joel.

It probably belongs on the B&B forum, but my spindrift 10N is a 2004 model with launching on Memorial Day weekend. Here is a pic of it under sail.
