62′ Alden Motorsailer (1938) – TRADE WIND

STUNNING. Takes my breath away...what an incredibly beautiful job you have done. The video is excellent. I am choking back all the huge adjectives pressing to be used to express how grateful I feel to see this work of great art. Whew! Dazzling...

I was just wondering how that email address came to you, was searching my site, not that I care--am delighted actually! And will reply to your letter, I got it, but have been attempting to focus on all the things I SHOULD be doing but continually find myself drawn back to discovering new, beautiful boats on this wonderful site. I wonder if it is going to still be available to members of OCH...hope so. Back to your question, Yes, without a doubt we are connected and am so pleased you have reached out to make it happen. Am eager to...

Breathtaking! Greatly appreciate all you are doing with so much love and respect. Delighted to be able to see your work. These pages in this virtual boat show make me long to again be around creative, thoughtful, interested and interesting people and their boats. Building our own boat was an especially wonderful experience. Will follow up on your website.

WOW! SO GLAD I ASKED! Yes, please, send them my regards...Julia and I worked together when they lived in Redwood City, California, George was always there for anyone who needed help and for entertaining us all with his stories. Both of them were always on the spot for support. We were close friends but lost touch around the time that George published his book and we were so very far away, fully occupied with whatever we thought was more pressing than ensuring special connections. Yes, please let her know it would be lovely to catch up if possible. My favorite...

AN THANK YOU, TOO, for the reply. My turn to apologize for responding late. I greatly appreciate the feedback about Hilo (sorry tho I am it is still impossible to stay there long-term). I wish we'd had a way to connect before this, when you were in the South Pacific...hope to hear more about your trip back, going back up to Hawaii. We also did that, leaving from Bora Bora, via a detour to Caroline Island then up--hard trip, late in season, but after a year of recuperation, headed back down to the Solomon Islands. I hope we can keep...

Yay! You used your ticket! So very happy and grateful to the crew that allowed me to share this wonderful site with you! Have been spending my free day roaming around, getting nostalgic. Regretful, too, for having lost touch with some but all the more appreciative of family and equally-beloved friends that remain steadfast in my life. The time spent with you two on board, especially meaningful, As have been all our other times on land, since. I'm so glad to've been accepted here, to have this opportunity to see and reconnect with a world of boats and boat people...

Kaci..I've lost touch with friends who moved to Port Townsend in the 1980's, George Julia Maynard, and.was wondering if you knew or know of them? Both good craftspeople, they built and launched ZULU in 1992...sound familiar? I would have thought they'd have a page here...
