What Made You Choose a Cape Dory?

It was the lines and the teak that first caught my eye, and I became infatuated. She spoke to me (and still does) with a voice like a Siren. Over time, though, I have also come to love her personality.

A friend took us sailing overnight to pulpit harbor in Maine.

My wife, son and I had a WONDERFUL time. Ginny and Rob had owned their Intrepid 28 for a meer 25 years (2nd owner) and still
had a love for the boat... Travelled extensively and did a stint living on board for a few months..

The only difference for me is that I wanted a wheel instead of a tiller.

I googled the same boat and one was for sale a meer 20 miles away in excellent shape with a wheel...

I honestly think it was meant to be...

after 5 years, I still love this boat but recently purchased
a 19' Com-Pac so the kids (21 And 26) could take it with their friends to the local lakes or harbors... I am not ready to turn
the CD over to them, plus Salem/marblehead is a pretty rocky area taking a little care with chart in hand.

live is good
