I'll add that I just got a note that John Marples may join our zoom meeting talking about a newly finished and beautifully built 35 footer of his design. Here is the email note I got:

Hope to see you all on Tuesday evening. Here’s email greetings from John Marples who designed this trimaran.

Hi Diane,



Thanks for the invite. I will try to attend. I am so glad to see this boat finished and looking so perfect. David would be very pleased.



And I am glad to see that the NWMA is alive and doing well. During this time and pandemic and political turmoil, we could all use a little lift. Stories like this are good for the soul.



Cheers to you all, John
