No, but I have good hiding spots. One for the boat, and one for me (just in case)

Nope! My nonsense is tolerated, as long as she has a good working car, room for it in the garage, and my land & sea fleet is stored out of sight.
Still, she's not going to learn of this boat till I get some fiberglass work & paint done. Then it'll magically appear on a mooring at her family cottage. She likes Minuets anyway, she's actually noticed them enough to point them out.

Thanks Les! No, it'll go right into a shop for the winter to get some work done. It's well past sailing season for me, I didn't even get my hobie out this year. Next summer both kids will be "boatable" ages. It's a great little sailboat for picnics... too excited!

They are! I've had times where I've been without a car, and hitch-hiked to work every day... but I have never been without a sailboat since I was 16.

No trailer, just that cradle. I'll probably whip one up next year, sure does make life easier. I don't like being dependant on access to a boom truck!

You guys are too polite to ask, and I'm too impolite to get a great deal and NOT gloat about it... $1200!!
