Hi friend...what have you been up to? You have great pictures that would make great paintings.

Please post your beach rlated and boat ones here in our ART GROUP on Seaknots.

Are you painting anything presently?

I have added several boat paintings, here and on the other site,,,see my page.

Take care and let me hear from you

Hi Mike are you planning on sailing soon?

Hi, Mike. My boat is a 1970 Westerly Cirrus. It's a British-built pocket cruiser made for the rough Irish Sea and waters around the UK. Sturdy as a brick, but slow as a slug. It's 22' long and draws 3.5'. It's the largest 22' boat I've ever been on; 5'10" headroom, large v-berth, enclosed head with holding tank, galley, setee, etc. Sleeps four - drinks ten. Perfect for puttering around the bay and the occasional weekend trip. I looked at larger boats, but since I'm normally singlehanding I figured I'd be better off with something I could handle alone under any circumstances. I made the right choice. (But those classy 30' and larger boats at Toledo Beach still make me drool!)

Yes,I noticed you were an Erie Sailor a while ago,
I check out who and where.
I've fished out of Luna Pier on a charter for walleye,nice area!
Hope ya had a riot.I'm sure you did.

Ahoy, Mike - and happy Independence Day. I was just cruising around on the site and noticed you're a bit north of me. I sail out of a small marina just south of Monroe. We were out enjoying Lake Erie earlier today, and we'll go out again tomorrow evening to watch fireworks in Luna Pier from the bay. Fair winds!

Hi Mike, Thanks for the welcome. Hope you are getting some great sailing weather now.

hey mike, i'm a goofball, commented back to you but it didn't make it this far its on my page.

It's a McCurdy-Roades design built by Heritage ,circa 1982,(i believe)

Might I enquire as to the make and model of yor vessel? If thats yours in the pic above ...I'd say she has the lines of an Alberg perhaps..is that an older C&C or Hunter?

hi mike,
re sailing happytalk-yea but i bet she has a wrinkled tan face under that hair. haha where are your picts?
