Jake,

Laughed out loud at the load of wood in the Minivan! Great, my friend!

As for towing odd contraptions through the water, about 20 years ago, I was late getting my float out of the water in the creek in front of home. Went to haul it out and...no float. So, I got in the canoe and went looking. Paddled about a mile down river, then followed the opposite bank back upstream and finally found the float directly across from home (wind blew it there). So, I tied a line to it and started across, forgetting the current set. By the time I made my shore, I was about 1/4 mile down river again, but I was in shallow water. I got onto the float, got a pole from the bank and poled my way back home. You have my sympathies.

Glad you and the little one enjoyed the Minuet. Great pics of a future sailor.

Best
Les

Love it, well done. Cool boat too.

How did you get it off the trailer, sorry if I missed that.

I have to pay for the travel lift and storage, a bill that coming up that I'm not looking forward to.

Those are great photos of your boat and little girl!

Those will be some fantastic memories for both of you.

Man, I'd pay the $150 even if I was broke as a spoke...but makes for a funny thread!

Nice truck.
