This just appeared overnight at our marina. As a certified steam man this excites me at many levels. It reminds me of the African Queen. Very similar boiler. Wood fired with what looks like a single cylinder reciprocating engine. All day I was hearing its steam whistle. Mark my words, I will make friends with these people AND I will get up and personal with this boat.
Great sail today. Started off bad, I forgot my sunglasses and had to go back in to get them. I was so un-used to the sun the glare off the deck was killing me. When we set out again the wind caught us and we ended up in a narrow part of the marina. I deliberately ran our boat in the end of a finger dock to regain control. Honest. We buried the toe rail a couple of times and the wife had a blast as did I.
