There are macs in every corner of the country And I'm sure every one of them would welcome you as a sailing visitor.
Best wishes!

Ron. Sorry to hear about the health issues and parting with your Mac.

I have a co-worked here in Austin that is interested in looking at your boat.

Your classified add does not mention what kind of outboard you have though. That's kind of important.

Could you either update your add or reply to this post with the outboard information?

I have enjoyed the time I have spent here with all of You fine folks and am thankful for all the advice and help with the mods I have made to Dauntless. I took Her out the other week....or better , I tried to take Her out.... and even though it's not hard to set up , I do get a little winded , and need to rest a while before launching.... This time I forgot My inhaler and wound up in the V.A.hospital in Waco Tx. The Doctors and all of My Family have ganged up on Me and Selling Dauntless is the result. I hope the next Owner gets to enjoy the dream trips I rigged Her for, but am not going to make. It sucks when the reality that You don't want sinks in.....But's that's life. Ron. :macm: Dauntless.

Time for family to step up and be crew so you can get your fix. Mine know that they will be taking me out onto Harpoons until Im 85 after which they are off the hook. After that, Ill go alone and if the GL takes me, so be it.

I hire some one to meet at my ramp with my trailer and then park the boat in my side yard. I can't perk a trailer for crp. Fifty bucks makes my life a lot easier. In later years I might add an extra fifty to put the mast up.
Just sayin
