I haven't even read a word of this article - "What is it About Boats"

Well, that Photo took my breath away. In a way whether it is part of the design or the whole boat, that is what it is all about with boats!

Now having read the article, oh my, the good life reimagined! Well if you haven't watched Rogers Barnes youtube on the Netherlands, it is a great tour guide for some of the area!

Congrats and ENJOY - hoping you'll share photos of the rest of that beauty (whether you buy or not!).

Safe travels - R

Thank you so much for the suggestion and good wishes. I just finished watching 3 Roger Barnes episodes thanks to you and I’m totally psyched to explore over there.

What a beautiful boat. It appears that one of the unsung advantages of small trailerable boats is that you can have one on each side of the pond. Congratulations! What a wonderful idea.

That is one of the most elegantly gorgeous boats I have ever seen. Best of luck with your new treasure!

The Townsend Tern is a beautiful boat. Your new boat is also really great looking. Hopefully, you'll share additional pictures and details with Small Craft Advisor.

Get well and enjoy your fleet!

Bless your heart you have long term boat buying covid. You may never recover.

The romantic visions appeared to me as well while reading your article, until the remembrance of very real, very low, and very stony bridges came to mind. Then the struggle of two masts to get under those charming bridges brought me to my senses.
