Profile Information

Hometown:
Millwood, NY
About Me:
I am an avid sailor and lover of boats and the water. I work for Edensaw Woods, LTD., a leading marine lumber and specialty hardwoods distributor. I own and race a 32 year old International 505 that has a fiberglass hull but the seat tanks are of cold moulded sitka spruce and the load bearing structure is all marine plywood. It is a legendary boat built by Mark Lindsay and Larry Tuttle. This boat was 2nd in the 1978 Worlds in France and is one of the most raced 505's. The wood part is the strongest part of the boat, and recently survived the Columbia River Gorge (well, the mast broke, but that was aluminum.) I also enjoy attending the Wooden Boat Festival in PT and sailing on Alcyone, my friends Prothero-designed 65' schooner.
Boats I own:
International 505, Laser

Good Day,

How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:(mrsstellaabudheir@gmail.com ) for the full details.

Have a nice day

Thanks God bless.

Stella.

Yup... that one's mine. I felt a little out of place amidst all those Ocean-going boats - but everyone was really nice and had a genuine interest in "running rivers" and fly fishing out of a dirft boat.

Eric - welcome to the site... I took my little 16' drift boat up to Port Townsend for the Festival this fall & had a great time. I'm already looking forward to next Fall... I hope the weather cooperates as well as it did this year!!

Hello Erik,
It's great to see someone from Edensaw! Tell Lew hello from Sandy and I. We sure appreciate when he can bring things by.

I'm looking forward to some photos.
