[C38] Listserve Digest, Vol 7, Issue 696

Thu Sep 15 22:08:24 EDT 2011

Max,
Number One was the prototype boat. It was owned by the factory and 
sailed by Gary Swenson of Ullman Sails.  Gary's dad had an Islander 24 
named So Long which Gary learned to sail on.  I had an identical boat 
built by Columbia called the Columbia Contender. At the time of hull 
number one C-38 I had a Catalina 30 with a gas Atomic 4 and a tiller. I 
had a mooring at Cat Harbor, Catalina Island.  Gary sailed in single 
handed bringing the boat back from the Ensenada race.  A that time, the 
boat had no interior. Gary slept in a sleeping bag on the hull.  He came 
over to our boat for dinner in Cat Harbor. While Gary had it, the boat 
was kept in Channel Islands Harbor, Oxnard. Joe Launie, Macavity  PS I 
guess I am the ad hoc fleet historian. Someone else is going to have to 
gather up these bits and pieces as they occur to me.
