Several of you lovely commenters have asked recently about the back-story of our life aboard our 50+ year old, cement & steel, locally built, pinky-stern, cutter-rigged boat. Oh yeah, she's like 47 feet long. People always want to know how long a boat is, just like people who really know nothing about motorcycles always ask: "How many CC's does that thing have?"
Now I sound churlish. Actually I'm gratified that you-all care! So here are a few links to previous posts that will fill you in. . .
