G'day eh!

;-) Actually, not all Canajuns say eh. But it annoys my wife a bit so I do it sometimes when she is not looking.
I have the urge to get sailing again and building a small boat really appeals to me. I have zeroed in on Graham Byrnes' Core Sound 17 and that is how I found this site, looking for CS17 performance info.
An Australian 18 Foot Skiff would be a blast to sail but I am far beyond handling a skiff like that and I will likely be doing mostly solo sailing on Lake Ontario, which is a few hundred feet down the street from our house. It is a bit chilly -8C on the top side of the earth right now but in a few months...
Cheers,
Paul

Welcome Paul, lovely part of the world at the right time of the year. I'm sure the boaties will give you a warm welcome too. Enjoy.

G'day Paul and welcome to the fun!!:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:

Thank you to all for your kind welcome. I envy your warm weather right now. Perhaps, one year a visit to OZ at this time of year with a stop in Sydney for the skiff racing.
Cheers and a Happy and Healthy New Year to all.

Welcome aboard, eh. :2tsup:

Lovely part of the world. Spent 18 months in Montreal, but I don't remember a great deal... I was only 10. Hope to go back one day...

I think you'll like it here. Lots of good people with a wealth of good info, sometimes even better than Wikipedia.
