42' Maple Leaf

Hey there Lesmusic!
We are spending the weekend on the boat this weekend! Lots of work to do and fun to have by all. We are buying all the electronics this week (big difference on prices for the exact same!) pays to shop around. We saved almost enough to pay for the professional installation!
Soon we will be designing and installing a the new name WINDFALL to place aft.
It's a great boat for sure and we are very fortunate to have it. Have you checked out the boat MUSIC at the yard by the dock? It may be worth your time.
See ya out on the water!

Sam & Nancy

Going, going, gone!

Been away from the board for a bit but that's about to change. We're going sailing! After a blurred 6mnths of none stop activity the task list is down to packing the car, 86ing Denver and Tacoma, and the PNW or bust. I'ld really like to chat with you other Maple Leaf owners over the coming months as we'll be living aboard for the next few years.

Maple Leaf 42

The sailing has been great here in Portland, OR! We plan to move aboard "Windfall" this October and take off on our "world tour" in just 24 months! Yea! We are excited to say the least. Ha The boat has been great, solid, and sails wonderfully.

Lats & Atts Party in Port Townsend, WA

Hey Merlinslave,

Latitudes & Attitudes magazine is having their pacific northwest cruisers party August 9 at Port Townsend. We went to the party last year and had a blast! Are you now moored in Tacoma on a 42' Maple Leaf? We are moving aboard our 42' this October here in Portland, OR. We are now working on "the list" of chores, but have made about $50K improvements - complete new wiring throughout, new electronics, haulout, engine room remodel, etc...
Going sailing on the Columbia River today...Arrrrrrrrr! Ha
