Back to the Spot (August)

We finally had summer arrive and to kick off the days of summer, Me and the missus went to our local favorite spot to relax for the day. The winds were lite and only the slight patches of cloud.

Nothing to do but sit back and listen to the radio.

Pretty simple, be really lazy in posting summer trips. Your correct to wonder. We had 30cm (11") of snow fall last Thursday.

About the Pathfinder

Pathfinder is a 17’-4” gaff rigged wooden sailboat designed by John Welsford. Born out of the drawings and lines of the Navigator. (a smaller design which have been built in the hundreds) The Pathfinder is the big brother for more extended cruising with larger crews and cargo. Its many features include a swing up centerboard for beaching, buoyancy compartments, storage lockers, inboard motor mounting, and is lightweight for its size. It’s swing up centerboard enables the Pathfinder not only to beach, but the ability to be launched at any slipway with a regular vehicle and trailer. This opens up a weekend cruising range envied by the big keel boats that must return to home port. It also means that the owner need only to trailer the boat back home at the end of the sail.
