Yup, she's still sailing the Tartan and her Barbie engine is still purring along. I too was amazed how simple it was to rebuild that engine (although I suppose the fine folks at Moyer deserve some of the credit).

I was sailing with my kidlette down there earlier this summer. Got all the way to the south bay and wrapped a dock line around the prop. We sailed her back and into the slip, she batted her eyelashes at a strapping young lad in the Yacht Club, and he dove and untangled the prop. Funny, I never seem to be as successful finding volunteers to help me with boat chores.
