Sunday, March 15, 2015. B&B 45 Powercat travels from Washington, NC to New Bern, NC. Lifted and on her way to the basin. View from astern. Transom fences clearly visible. Another view of the transom fences. The discoloration is thanks to the Neuse River. Neuse Juice" as we call it here. It will fade once she gets into some clear water. Passing a barge just before the Hobucken Bridge. Below, shot at the mouth of the Neuse River. Boat speed is 9.5 knots. Head sea just off the port bow. B and B Yacht Designs.

Sailing Adventures of SOS: April 2014
http://sailnaway.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 22, 2014. A Little Side Project. While the CS 15 takes shape I had to get moving on another project I promised I would do for my friend Doug (AKA Ridgerunner) who is building the first Core Sound 20 MK3 from a kit. He has lots of pictures of the build on his blog Capt-Doug.blogspot.com. He will have the boat down at the Cedar Island get together in Florida in a short time and I built the weighted centerboard for the new boat. Shown here are the final seconds of machining the finished surfa...

Sailing Adventures of SOS: February 2015
http://sailnaway.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. More like Profanity Producer! Just finished part 19 in the building series on the Core Sound 15. The prototype that went to a customer in Florida was completed almost 4 months ago but if feels like i haven't had a spare moment to work on videos since then. Well, this weekend I forced myself through another segment using a new program which always takes longer. I'm now using Power Director 13 which was a Christmas gift! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sailing Adventures of SOS: November 2014
http://sailnaway.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 17, 2014. The Core Sound 15 sails at the Messabout 2014. Sunday the breeze filled in and Graham took some video of me spinning around and tacking. The boat is very lively and light on the helm. She takes off much quicker than the CS-17 but has a lot more stability than a Spindrift 12. What a fun boat to sail! Sunday, November 02, 2014. New Build Videos on the Core Sound 15. Here are a few more videos in the Core Sound 15 build series. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). B and B Yacht Designs.

http://sailnaway.blogspot.com/2015/01/core-sound-15-leaves-b.html
Sunday, January 18, 2015. Core Sound 15 Leaves B&B. The CS-15 that has been the focus of the video series I started last year has left the B&B shop bound for Florida with her new owner. She received her new decals as well as a few last touches. Trailer rollers and mast crutches for transport. I hope to see some pictures of her in her new home on a lift in the canals of Florida. As for the video series, I am still working on the next batch of videos. SOON i hope. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Half the Paddle.Twice the Man. This is a rambling diatribe of my life.It consist of all "dreams divided on a point of fire." A dialogue of my life on the left bank of the Willemette River. Friday, September 14, 2007. I have a race next week. The last of the year and I haven't been paddling much. I hope my fatty boom boom doesn't sink the boat. Pocohantas, hey, you need to check out my blog. I have started the Iron Maiden page just for you! September 14, 2007 at 1:35 PM. September 20, 2007 at 12:38 PM.
