Hello all,
I, along with my wife and son, just achieved two firsts within the same trip: first solo sail as a family, and first overnight in the boat. There were no injuries, damage to the boat, and we are all still talking to one another

.
I purchased my 2001

in October of last year after a year of searching. Since then, I have found this site and its forums have been instrumental in my positive experiences sailing. I have made modifications to my cabin floor, galley, plumbing, electric system and the mast-raising kit. An air-conditioning mod may be queued up for this Summer…
I thank you all for your ideas, advice, and wisdom,
John
