Tami My fbw is the atlantic ocean (of course!!). I grew up on the east coast of Florida & there's no better place on earth. Hawaii is a close second. I've been on the west coast for 23 years now & although I love the Pacific & the Pacific Northwest (I'm in Portland,Oregon), it's not the same as the intracoastals & swamps of Florida of my youth.

Tom I have my 32 foot 1950 owens sedan cruiser moored at shuswap lake. For those of you that may be wondering that is in southern British Columbia Canada. I like cruising and fishing. I was looking through the net for a club to help me with some restoration questions and purchases. June 28, 2004 at 22:46:44 |

Fenton Lake Lanier is my favorite body of water and apparently the only Lake my newly purchased 1980 27' 'Helms' has ever known. I retired recently and plan to slowly refit the boat. Wish me luck! June 27, 2004 at 15:45:59 |

Jude I was surfing the internet and came across this site. We just purchased a 1987 Wellcraft. It has a hull that sleeps about four people, cramped. We have three young children who love the water and love to fish. We plan to do a lot of fishing on this boat in the ocean. I'm thrilled to have gotten a boat, but wish it was a little bigger inside. I'm hoping to find other families we can join on outings. Wednesday, June 23, 2004 at 16:48:32 |

Jane I bought my first boat last summer (2003 SeaRay 220 Sundeck) and I love it. I keep my boat on Long Island Sound in Westchester NY (although my FBW is Peconic Bay out in Southampton, LI). I quickly realized that a single woman boat owner like myself is very rare (not that I mind being the minority in this case). I'm very interested in meeting other single boat owners who share my passion for boating. I've been searching the net looking for local/national social boating clubs, and came up with nothing until I found AVYC. Wednesday, June 23, 2004 at 15:24:58 |

We have beenlimited in our distance away from home by work restraints. We do. But only for a little less than 4 yrs now.We can't wait. We have been sailing 13 yrs. starting with a 23 Watkins and teaching ourselves how to make it move. After 3 years we moved up to a 30 Hunter that we sailed for 6 years,then moved up again to the Irwin. It is the boat we plan to escape on. We happened upon the club by way of a link off a link. I don't even remember whose at this point. May 10, 2004 at 13:32:53 |

Peter My wife and I live just off Cape Cod, Massachusetts and do most of our sailing on Buzzards Bay. We are currently rebuilding a Claymore 30, "Olivebank", that was rescued a year ago from a slow death in a boat yard. This web site was discovered while we were in search of any other Claymore owners out there. April 23, 2004 at 11:59:57 |

Bob H & I are just retired, just married, and just a new owner of a Harbor 20. We know just enough and are learning/experiencing sailing for as much time as our busy schedule allows. Google told us about you. April 23, 2004 at 11:56:48 |

First MateTanya Any body water works for me. My preference after that is any BLUE water. I grew up boating with my father and it is my passion. I found this web site because I have a small business "First Mates" and I was searching for some information and this caught my eye. I sell nautical jewelry and decor for boaters/yachties as well as provisioning for yachts in my area. I look forward to spending time reading from this site.

Capt. Who I started out sailing on a small lake in Madison Wisconsin called Lake Mendota using boats owned by the University of Wisconsin Hoofers. I purchased a 22' O'day in 1998 and sold it a few years later so that I could purchase my 28.5 Hunter which resides in Florida on the back bay of Fort Myers Beach. Currently I'm liking the Gulf of Mexico as a home base, but I have my sights set on the Carribean sometime in the next few years, hopefully in a larger boat. April 18, 2004 at 06:38:11 |

Don My Family and I boat on Lake Ontario out of Harbour-West Marina In Hamilton.We Have a 24ft Four Winn`s she`s an 87 but has teak and class not all white like the newer boat`s.We live a block away from the water so were out mostly everyday.I stumbled upon this site while looking for a Four Winn`s owner`s club like the Bayliner club but no such luck.Maybe this will catch the attention of another Four Winn`s owner who loves his as much as I love mine Don From The Steel City April 13, 2004 at 17:52:03 |

Tolise I have loved boating ever since my first experience with it in high school. My parents had a 32' cabin cruiser that we took out on the Illinois River every weekend. I have been sailing once or twice and enjoyed that too!! I am joining a great sailing club and look forward to more great boating experiences! April 08, 2004 at 18:32:53 |
