Hi John & Chris:

Just went over to the boatyard, to knock the snow and ice off my Typhoon. Only three short months 'til launch for me...

Have a great new year.

Frangipani

Post by Peter Drake »

FRANGIPANI
Family: Plumieria rubra

This small ornamental tree is named after a French word meaning ‘coagulated milk’. The caustic milky sap that flows from a cut branch has been employed in folk medicine. It is a native of the West Indies.

John, you don't really seem like a "frangipani-kind-of-guy" to me...

Meeting Last Summer

Post by Clay Stalker »

John and Chris:

I enjoyed meeting you both last summer on the dock at the CD Rendezvous in Jamestown. Now that I know another CDSOA member is around Narragansett Bay, I will look for you next summer. Also, depending on where the Rendezvous will be next summer, maybe we can organize a flotilla.
