We love our 9’ Fatty Knees Sweet Pea. If you want a hard dink these are at the top of the pyramid.

Lyle Hess also designed the Pardey’s 29’6” Taleisin and the Bristol Channel Cutter among many other classic designs.

Forrest:

It may just be on my computer (it's old; I'm old :( ) but the two photos you posted do not appear. There is a small box with an "X" and next to it the word "image".

If it is only my computer no worries. However if it is across the CDSOA readers you may want to investigate.

I have close friends in Houston. It might be an interesting trip.
Fair winds,

Roberto, good catch. I saw this post on my phone and could not even see the image tabs. I can’t open any pics either.
