A more exciting birthday celebration I can't imagine. No doubt you'll be toasting the next one with green tea too!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Bill.<br /><br />William Serjeanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18419676353659137355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882921.post-48199233521917035222014-12-06T03:16:33.919+00:002014-12-06T03:16:33.919+00:00Hello Bill, the Leisure family, particularly the 1...Hello Bill, the Leisure family, particularly the 17, will always be close to my heart, having owned a 17. The only cuss mark I could really award is the galley on the companion way step, for obvious reasons. But, that aside, Id never rule out owning another. On my first sail with mine the outboard died on me coming back to the mooring, so I had to sail back on. Id already lowered and stowed the main(!)but decided that I could probably manage under the genoa. I rounded up just past the mooring, misse stays and ended up on the banks of the creek, a lee shore, but a flooding tide. I had to quic kly raise the main, shove myself off the mud, sheet in, and claw off just about as quickly as Im writing this. I was really impressed with how she came off, fortunately not in a huge press of wind, I used a telescopic deck broom to push myself off, just, so you can imagine it wasnt a terribly strong breeze.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338070894458245404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882921.post-68659696133506528802014-12-05T22:44:53.390+00:002014-12-05T22:44:53.390+00:00oooh.
