Hi, I live not too far from you over on Perdido Bay on the Florida side.

Good luck on your refit and hope to see you out there once I finally get a boat of my own.

You'll find plenty of knowledge here, not all of it agreeing with each other all the time though. But overall, a nice group of people who are in general very knowledgeable. And anyway, I think I've heard somewhere, "The only wrong way to do something is to not enjoy it."

Welcome aboard from a West coast Canadian who is temporarily displaced in the Middle East. Back to my boat in five days.

I also live in Mobile. I have been on this site for over 2 years. I had a Pearson 26 and sold it to get a center console fishing boat. After the 'ol divorce I sold that one too. I now fish from a kayak. You have probably seen me on Dog River or down on Dauphin Island. I am currently looking for an sailboat and will go with a catalina 27 or another Pearson 26. I am mainly looking at price right now in the 26-30 range. Hope to see you around.
