Bump to the top, see y'all there.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

had a good time, drank too much coffee, and was nice to put some faces to the forum names.

Would like to have gone, but my sailboat, was calling to me, saying "Put me back together". 

Mizzen mast is up, in the next few days, the main mast goes up. 

We were the 2nd boat on the slip this year, beat out by one other boat, but we have not taken ours out yet, because we trailer ours home in the winter, the other boats cover theirs masts up, and leave them at the lake.  More work setting up when everything has to be put back in place again.

We could have the next gun get together, sailing on Branched Oak.

One of only a few left, she was made in 1976, under the watchful eye of famous blue water yacht designer William Crealock.  She is a Clipper Marine 32' aft cabin, center cockpit, Ketch.    She will sleep 6, and day sail double that.  She was built to race to outer islands around Southern California.   I found her in a storage lot outside LA, CA a year ago, and imported her to Nebraska.   She was the largest sailboat on Branched Oak lake for a few months, till someone with deep pockets, not wanting out done, imported a 33' sailboat from Texas.  lol

Gary, my dad has a sailboat that he keeps at Cunningham lake in Omaha, he is always wanting me and my boys to come out and use it. So far my youngest is the only one that does.
It is a McGreggor, I don't think it is as long as yours somewhere in the mid 20s, but it has a good sized cabin and an outboard motor also.
If you ever set anything up, I would be interested in a sailing lesson. I work every other weekend so it would be hit or miss.
Looks like a fun hobby.
