Ty Nationals
Hi Mitchell,
Thanks for the news item. So that you won't be denied sailing in the Ty regatta, you are cordially welcome to use my Ty. She is almost ready to go. All she needs is to remove the winter cover, maybe a good washing, a little sanding and painting and, of course, a spiffy coat or three of brightwork varnish. I'll give you the address and number of the sailshop where you can pick up the sails that are being renewed.
My, how times have changed things. The word Rappahannock brings back fond memories. A few years back, when I was in grade school, there was a story floating around that George Washington once threw a silver dollar across the Potomac River.
Actually, this story isn't so. He really threw it across the Rappahannock River. Alas, it is impossible to do this anymore.
Why, you ask? (are you sitting down?)
You see, a dollar doesn't go as far today as it used to.
Have a good one,
O J

we are located on Carters Creek and I would be glad to crew for someone that needs a hand for this event.
Also, I am in the market to purchase a Typhoon so please let me know if you are considering selling yours, especially if you are in the Chesapeake Bay area. Thanks, Jim Creedon
