Well, I'm looking at my driveway where the 22' cruiser sits. Just bought it (used) and I expect I'll need to communicate with fellow owners. I've always run metal boats, almars, lunds, etc. and always for work. So, i wonder who has time to advise a first time owner of a glass boat?

Congratulations! I bought mine last summer after a string of wooden boats, and spent all fall and winter getting her back into fighting shape. Now she's in her slip and I'm thrilled with her.
As a new guy myself I can tell you that the experience on this site and the generosity of knowledge of the members is remarkable. Great resource. |

Welcome aboard.
Generally questions are placed on the general or problem specific forums. That way there is learning for all. Even what seems like a basic question often is something that folks have different opinions, and may be a learning opportunity for all.

Welcome! The best thing you can do is go to a CBGT (C-Brat Get Together), and as it happens, we have one coming up in Friday Harbor in a few days! See Event Signups. If you are free, you should really attend! Not only will you learn what you want, you will meet the best folks anywhere who share a common interest in our fantastic boats!

| But don't head over to Friday Harbor tomorrow - gale warnings! Wait until Friday! And get in the habit of checking the NOAA Coastal Waters Forecast! |
