Re: HELLO EVERYONE :-)

Welcome aboard!
Just a quick warning, don't ask about anchors! Your anchor is too small, it's the wrong kind, and you don't have enough chain! It's best to avoid the A word.

Welcome aboard! (NEVER mount your anchor on the hard dodger...it will interfere with the operation of the machine guns.) ;-)

Re: HELLO EVERYONE :-)

Welcome to CF Capn' Troy!

Where you at in TN?

Based in Corinth, sufficiently far enough from any 3 of the coasts to be frustrating!

Re: Hello Everyone :-)

Welcome to the community. Is yours the 58' Alden Ketch? Is it with you in Tennessee? Is the rig up? I hear there's a shortage of "tall" ships in Tennessee,- 'got to be a story with this. Let us know.
