Gentleman Adventurer Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 The young man Nate sailing the Pintail has been sailing that boat since he was 10, and it shows. He was very skillful in its handling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentleman Adventurer Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Rick brought his Belhaven. Very nice small cruiser. The boat behind the Pintail is one of Grahams Amandas. Sweet little boat and fun to sail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docpal Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 First off, MANY thanks to Graham, Carla, Beth,Alan, David, etc., etc. for their incredibly gracious hosting of the Messabout! it was an absolutely wonderful, and informative, couple of days, and I had a great time. I took a bunch of pictures which I just posted onto a Flickr page, but I'm having "issues"getting the link to work. If it does NOT post here I'll go back and post the pix in small groups.

Docpal Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 OK, THAT wasn't what I was trying to link to. BUT if you go to www. Flickr.com , and look up "Docpal" / 2013 B & B Messabout" you should be able to see ALL of the above a lot slower...If anyone pictured would like a copy of a particular picture, please drop me a note with your e-mail address and I'll pass them along.

cprinos Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Great day at B&B on Saturday, I got to spend plenty of time in a CS17 (thanks Norm!), which was my first time in a B&B boat. Luckily my wife and two girls approved, so I haven't wasted the last two years of building Norm's CS17 SUMMER BREEZE had new owners, I heard this was their first time launching: Dock full of catketches: Saturday coming to a close: I might steal this idea for integrating fairleads into the coaming, and I noticed many boats had the filler panels to create a large raised deck forward Handy storage and a slick knotmeter installation obligitory snotter pic Adrian took this one of me pretending that I know what I'm doing with her dad's boat: Another 17 that Alan was maneuvering nicely (without use of the rudder for a while) Norm & Docpal A CS20 EC22 and CS20 DAWN PATROL SUMMER BREEZE moves in a light autumn breeze The handsome AMYCITA (see WoodenBoat #235) motored in on Saturday, she's closing in on 100 years old. Another boat from Massachusetts -- apparently I have to come to North Carolina to see all my neighbors' cool boats All in all a great time. Great boats and lots of nice people. My girls, of course, liked all the dogs that showed up. Thanks to Graham, Carla, & Beth for hosting a great event, I hope to make it back down again (hopefully with a finished boat next time) Chris p.s. if anyone wants a full-res image of these, just pm me.

Joe Anderson Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Mike Monies at the tiller of Skorpa. Sally is trimming the main sheet. Gordy and his pal Boris came for a gentle sail. Dawn Patrol and Southbound. I think this is a Mandy. What a great Messabout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattp Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 ... SUMMER BREEZE moves in a light autumn breeze Is this a CS17 or CS20? I've wondered about the feasibility of a cuddy on the 17. Nice pics, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cprinos Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Matt, SUMMER BREEZE is a CS20 Mark II (I think it's the prototype of that one.

cprinos Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Also, see http://messing-about.com/forums/topic/5763-building-petunia-cs-17-204/ for a CS17 with a cuddy that DocPal is building Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Marshall Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 I'd like to thank all of the participants of our Messabout for contributing your time, energy, and presence to a wonderful experience. Many of you traveled from afar, all I had to do was step out my front door. I have attached some pictures from Saturday here, print inquiries welcome.
