Today's Pics

We've been admiring this old sailboat since arriving. It's just down the dock a way, we walk past it everyday.
The craftsmanship!
I would hate to be responsible for it's upkeep, but someone has kept it sweet.


Old school


It's a beauty for sure, I got a few more shots...

 Old hardware

It's been a while since I've paid attention to sailboats, but I think she's a ketch rig... though she could be a schooner. I bet some sailboater out there will inform me.



Wooden masts and booms... you don't see that much anymore.


Wooden cleats ... no self-tailing winches here.

She's for sale.

Would love to hear the stories this old boat could tell.


Ahhh... it's a rain day. Just another excuse to be lazy.


Adios,
