Good luck, if you're ever in Galesville, MD let me know.

Lefty:
What a great story! Those of us CapeDory NUTS do appreciate what you've done. Hull #4 should be displayed on the CD Website as the featured boat of the fleet!.

I should be going right by Galesville in the fall. Don't ditch the wife! If I missed anything this trip it was having no one to turn to and say "look, isn't that pretty?". Also if she can steer a course you can change a jib running downwind, or take a nap. With another helmsperson (?) you could make 100 mile days, something I can only dream about.

You can make your dream a reality!!! Get an Autohelm 1000 for tillers. It works great on the CD-25. With that helming for you, it's as if you had a crew! It works! I had one on my 1980 CD-25. On my CD-33 I have the Autohelm 3000 for the wheel, and it's also a delight. Cheers.

respectfully: an autohelm is not like having a crew, because it can not stand a watch. After 24 hrs, neither can I. You have to have a lookout at all times, you know. Like when I called the Navy ship in the Chesapeake: I said "sailing vessel Lefty on your port bow" and he came back "there's nobody on my port bow". This was broad daylight, 5 mi visibility, and at a range of about 1000 yds. See, he should have posted a lookout.
