Larry I cant believe you forgot Martha's name. After all that T-Top talk you had with her. Now I have to shell out big bucks cause she wants one too! Let me know if your buddy comes up with any more deals like the one you got. I'd even be willing to pay a couple hundred more than you did! :P Had a great time. Glad your trip was a safe one.

My apologies to Martha, Kurt :oops: The fault is mine, not hers. Your boat would look good with a T-Top, although it looks real good without one too. Maybe Cape Man can hook you up if he ever get's back from the Caymans :lol:

The post say that the boat is a Pursuit 24 and I recognize the typical gunnel boards, the door and the baitwell. I designed that hull and those features some 15 years ago.
It was appropriate to bring it to the meeting.
Sorry that I missed this year but I will be there next year.
Jacques the boat you spoke of is mine. It is a 2670 CC that I have had for several years. It is actually a 26 foot boat so you probably designed the hull. It is a great boat. It has taken me offshore numerous times up to 100 miles and has always brought me back home safely. Larry, you are correct on the length. Though it is listed as a 26 foot boat the LOA is actually 28 foot 6 inches with a 9 foot 3 inch beam.

I think this year's meet was at least 100% better than last year's. To all that posted to thank me it was not just me. Everyone that came brought something. If it wasn't food it was a boat, a building tip or a smile. Many thanks to Tom, Larry, Gary, Yvonne, Martha, Bill, Shella, John, Joe and to Joel for bringing the tee shirts and hats. Hope I didn't miss anyone :doh: I have a bunch of pics but I have been working a little late for the last couple of days trying to get caught up at work. I will eventually get them posted.

I think we need a change of location next year. We may have a new place picked out :wink:

Well, as it turns out, I don't have to look for an excuse to get a new camera.
I had to use a card reader to get what pictures I did take and uploaded them to a folder.

Maybe you can photoshop some detail back into the ones with bad exposure. :oops:
