Just spotted this - looks like it could be a good deal for someone: http://annapolis.craigslist.org/bod/4904870093.html Gerry

On the Mooring Ball

Wee Wine 2 on the Mooring

Take the cue from Will C. Just do it in chunks and don't rush it. We dreamed for 5 years before we went and are starting to dream again.

Another trick that worked for us was to toss a small mushroom anchor (that we had for our dinghy) off the stern. An added complication with two lines in the water, but it did slow down the sailing.

See colobear's response - that has worked for us on the boats we have owned.

Hi there, We took 17 days from Kingston to South Bay Cove Marina in Georgian Bay (in our Monk 36), but that included waiting for company to show up from Utah. We loved everyplace we went, but the lift locks (Peterborough & Kirkfield) and the Big Chute railway were definitely highlights). Oh...

Just went through the financing/insurance issue with the purchase of a 93 angler 19. Had to get a marine survey done to establish a value. Survey came in $3,000 more than the offer, so no problems after that. Gerry Wee Wine 2

Yes, I used them on our Monk 36. Helped to keep light rain from entering the open windows in the salon and aft stateroom. Make sure you install with a slight angle to insure proper draining. During a heavy rain, they will likely overflow as the channel isn't very deep. Easy to install and...
