    I do have one of Annie's sisters. I don't have the tender. Our boat was modified by FC Williams prior to build to allow greater head room and comfort below. The house was extended to just aft of the...

    It's a typo. The American Kidney Foundation is at the address listed +/- (also misspelled "Executive" Blvd). Considering some of Chuck's health issues, it makes sense.
  6. Re: Does anyone have experience of Fenwick William's ''Annie " ?

    Roger has far more sailing experience with RARUS than I do. I can speak somewhat about her structure/design, as I've become incredibly intimate with her construction over the last several years.

    Re: MattJ

    I'm alive. Just busy with school (thank you, Chuck), work, RARUS, and other things and re-evaluating my participation here. The Rover's gone, Doug (thank Goodness).

    Thanks for thinking of me.
  8. Re: 25 ft Hooper Island Draketail construction, Part 2

    Thanks for the thread and the work to document in words and photos the building.

    I imagine that, like me, those of us from the Mid-Atlantic and/or with any connection to the Chesapeake have a...

    Re: Cutts Method of planking

    I'm going to try to be polite about this...

    Ed Cutts Senior came up with the idea I think. The Cutts sons have been deeply indoctrinated in the method. The basics are that you have two layers of...

    Saw that, too. I actually only clicked on the doom-and-gloom, err, non-boat section because I saw the "Lucky Dogs First Sail" title...

    Re: Lucky Dogs First Sail Of The Season

    Good grief!

    Joe: nice boat, nice dog, nice river... great sail[ing].

    The doom-n-gloom crowd, along with a few notable pricks, is why I've been logged off the WBF for a while. Even so, they're...
