I'm wondering if my Cheoy Lee Bermuda Ketch and I are the farthest abroad of the Moyer Marine discussion group members. "Jude" is currently about a five-minute walk from the French Atlantic coast in Brittany, resting comfortably in my garden and awaiting an overhaul of the Atomic 4 planned for this spring.
I learned to sail in Santa Barbara in the early 90's (I'm a mountain boy from the Sierra Nevadas) and have been in and out of harbors ever since. I should have checked the tide tables before moving out here, though, as sailing with 20+ foot tidal ranges changes the rules of the old ballgame.
So, other than working on the Atomic 4, I would like to install "crutches" on the boat in order to dry her out safely (standing up) when the tide moves out of the anchorages.
Kudos to Mr. Moyer for this forum and the goldmine of information available to those of us far from the sources of parts and experience.[IMG]
