[C38] Maybe a C-38

[Mikenolen at aol.com]

David, excellent. Looks like my next big decision will be Great Lakes,  East 
Coast, West Coast. Also, were you in the intracoastal or did you do  any off 
shore on your trip up the coast? I think I read that you did go off  shore, but 
I've been reading so much it starts to run together.  Thanks.

Hello  Mike and Buck,

Our C38 is our first big boat. My family and I put 1000  miles under the
keel last Winter. Then I put another 1000 miles under the  keel bringing
the boat up the East Coast last April. Then we spend another  five weeks
aboard as a family this Summer past.

Love love love our  boat. Great sailer and a great value. Good looking  too!
