"Michael,
From experience over three keel boats a fully battened main is almost a requirement.
Not only will it make dropping the sail into the boom bag far easier it certainly reduces any flogging and vastly lengthens the life of the sail. While…"

I understand. We haven't made it down to the Buzzards Bay area yet. I would Really appreciate it if you could forward my contact information to your friend out of Salem. My 9 yo daughter is the one that we really need to find friends for. My e-amil address is skellowaype@yahoo.com Thanks again and if or when we do head down your way, I'll drop you a line. Fair winds and following seas! Scott
I have beencruising the North Shore for the past few years (after a 20 or so year racing) with my wife and 3 children. I am looking to find other families with children who would like to do some cruising next year. I find that as the kids get older they need to have other kids around to interact with to make it a more enjoyable experience for them. My daughte r is 9 years old. and I have 2 boys 13, and 10. Let me know if either you, or if you know anyone who would like to arrange some trips next year. Thanks Scott. skellowaype@yahoo.com
