The December 2011 issue of Soundings Magazine just arrived. There's a story and photos about a TomCat 255 owned by George and Stacey Sass. Always nice to find an article that mentions the C-Dory and the C-Brats Love

Thanks for the link, Marc. Looks like they found the right boat for their use, huh? As bigger boat owners discover the ease and ability to explore new areas in relative comfort that boats like ours and others on the Sasses' short list provide, this may be the segment of the boating industry that comes back first.

Thumbs Up

Best wishes,
Jim

I was wondering which of the Wefing's boat lines that the Sass's bought after reading Mr. Sass's article in Yachting Magazine.
For those that may not know George Sass Sr. probably could have bought any boat he wished. Kudos to Wefing's for and Mr. Sass for choosing the TC255. We welcome them to the C-Brat Family and hope to see the Sass's at some of our gatherings.

George and Stacey are great folks to know , and they find the Tomcat well suited for their needs . They have an enormous amount of experience on lots of boats . "Viewfinder" is a clever name as George is an accomplished photographer .
