[Public-List] Boat Wanted / Boat Found

[danielswords@yahoo.com via Public-List]

Hi to all and thanks for the overwhelming response.   I had intended to respond to each person separately but I received so much support that I find I haven't the time! 

I have purchased a boat and as of today I am the very, very, very happy owner of hull # 525, the Resolute previously belonging to Chuck Thompson in Mandeville,  LA.  I live only about 30 miles from Mandeville and though Chuck's boat wasn't quite for sale when he read my plea he was sort of considering selling it and so this was the perfect timing and location of sale for both of us.  I am keeping the boat in Mandeville because that is an ideal setting and marina and Lake Pontchartrain is an ideal Lake and area for sailing with warm water year round and easy access to the open Gulf but I am renaming my boat the KATHERINE-B after my daughter (anyone know the correct letter size for this name on the transom?). 
 
I expect that 80 to 90 percent of my sailing will be single-handed and that this will be the boat I will own until the end of my days, but only time will tell that.  I hope to be an active participant in the association but would like to know about the association fees. 

Anyway sorry for the long and rambling note but I am just so excited!  Thanks again to all, 
Daniel
