Blowing on reeds

Found some pics on inet. This boat (50 ft.) is almost identical to ours, except it's Cor-Ten steel, and ours was 53'. The topsides look the same and layout is very similar. It was a wonderful period in my life.
It was my love of boats that started my accordion quest. Well almost, I have an English Concertina I purchased soon after the boat to learn, while cruising the world. Sadly, it never happened (Too much boat, not enough money). It did make a wonderful home for 20 years.

Hell of a boat. I bet she was sea kindly.

One of my mates bemoaned the fact that his passion for sailing meant that his vessel was: "Just a hole in the water to throw money into."

BOAT is a acronym: Break Out Another Thousand
It is said that the two most joyous times in a sailors life are when he buys a boat, and when he sells it. So true.
