I'll be helming a grill and not a boat today. That's not so bad, really. And if I get a moment, maybe I'll splash some more paint on FIG. She's coming along. In any event, I'm ever so grateful for SCA as a harbor of refuge. Always there and always sane. Thanks Marty, Josh, and all. Happy Day!
Thank you Marty, the photos are a real tonic. Here in the UK July 4th is General Election Day with big changes in government expected. I might have to keep returning to your photos in order to stay sane!!
Lovely photos and great post. It's food for my soul, as I am a year and a half into my first build and first boat of my own. Can't wait to join the world of small boat sailing and get out on the water. Thank you :)
I'm so envious! Such beautiful wee boats and glorious scenes - and here I am stuck 5 hours inland! Oik! I hope you all have a lovely, stress-free 4th, and of course the rest of the summer, too!
Thanks, Marty. Fabulous and timely advice! Dan and I plan to take Dauntless out Sunday for three and a half weeks in the islands. Hope I see you up there.
As our guru said about days like this, “Start slow then ease up.” Enjoy the Fourth.

Happy 4th July, all you Americans.
It's General Election day here in the UK.
Wish us luck. 😱
I spent 4 months last winter cruising on our 24ft in the Abacos.
We often spent extended periods at remote, uninhabited islands with beautiful beachs.
Beach walks were timed for low tide and the views of the blue green water, surf turning on the outer reefs and blue sky above were amazing.
It often struck me how truly tranquil things were compared to the current chaus in the world on so very many levels.
Small boats certainly are capable of taking us all to some form of tranquility.
Enjoy it!
Happy 4th of July!
Great photos. Thank you

Happy Fourth of July to my American Friends, from Vancouver Island, BC
Lovely photos, as always. May the 4th be with you!
You guys nailed it again! Really looking forward to your next.

Just wonderful. Thanks so much.
