Re: dufour 31

Oh, you also indicate the Volvos run opposite, so then the prop walk is to starboard on this boat?

Re: dufour 31

Re: Couple Wants to Sail in Texas

Forgot to ask you about your Navy time. Where did you serve? I was on CVN69 31 or so years ago.

Re: Couple Wants to Sail in Texas

Thanks "oldman66". We sail regularly on the local lake but was hoping to connect up with occasional bay and sea time options. We'll continue looking. Good luck with the transfer. Hope it goes well.

Thanks. So if I spent 2 years on an aircraft carrier in the early 80's I can count that time toward a liscence? Sorry for my double check as I have heard different versions. Thanks
