Originally a sail boater, I lived year round aboard a 30 foot Bill Tripp designed Colombia 30 for 7 years. Now I have a trailer-able 19 foot mini tug/trawler designed by Phil Bolger and built by Montgomery in Gloucester MA. When I own a power boat I really miss sailing. When I own a sailboat I miss having a power boat. I guess I just love boats in general. But I always consider myself a sailor.
More coming soon...

Jerry,
Glad to see I'm not the only powerboater in here. I just sold my trawler. I had a 34 Marine Trader that I lived aboard for 5 years. I'm looking for another boat, (not to live on) and I really like the Nordic's. Now that you've had your a while, how do you like it?
