Maiden Voyage

Email Me


Ok... time for our Maiden Voyage! Here we launched her in at Port Sanilac, MI. I was relieved to see that she floats! That's my buddy Todd in the photo. He's been sailing all his life, and I was happy he was with me for this sail. You can see that I have a trolling motor mounted on the back to get us in and out of the harbor.

Not a lot of wind, but just right for a Maiden Voyage for me! Everything went smoothly with the exception of the open keel hole in the cockpit floor. Cold Lake Huron water occasionally splashed up and hit our feet. I have since made a cover for the keel hole to take care of that. Also the swing keel pivot bolt leaks a little, but nothing I'm going to worry about. That's me in the pics below enjoying my "new" sailboat!




Here's some more pics from the summer of 2013

There's a lot more that I did when fixing up Sea-Riously...? Too much to list here at this time.
But, I'm sure I'll update this page ocassionally with more as I recall it!


Here's some pics from the summer of 2014. Notice the new teak hand rails, main sail cover and Nissan outboard. Plus I added a small solar charger to keep the battery charged for the exterior and interior lights (and eventually a sound system).
