Hurt my back sailing this past weekend, again.  After 20 years on steel decks followed by 20+ with trailer sailers, it's time. Still planning on doing the FL 120 this year, and my wife won't give me too hard a time for self medicating with Bushwhackers along the route.

Sold!  On to the next boat!  That was our 3rd Sea Pearl Trimaran, looking at a 2nd Hunter 23.5 tomorrow.

Ed, KEWL!!  8)
Hope to see you out there on whatever boat, helps your back!
You and Becky are two of my favorite people.  :)   
Between the BEER Cruise, the FL120 and Cedar Key Small Boat Meets, you are the people I most consistently run across.

You'll be seeing us on the water Charles.  We are looking at either another Hunter 23.5 or a 26/260.  Room to move about, easy mast raising system, dedicated head (I'll put a compost head in whatever we get), nice size cockpit with back support, etc.  Planning to get a slip on Lake Allatoona at Harbor Town, either a seasonal or year round and use the boat as a cabin.  We'll still make one or two cruises a year since reviews say that putting the mast up on a 23.5 (we had Saint Somewhere for 5 years) is the same as the 26/260, and it wasn't bad to put up the mast on SS.
