Hi all; not sure to whom i’m sending this but hey ho.
My name is Al Beckhelling and as of a day or two ago, my wife and I signed up for a new BC23 (albeit next May). Well done Matt; you did a good job on us!
At the moment, we own a Character Boat (Coastal Weekender) and have attended two owner rallies in Falmouth. When I realised you were all meeting there this year, thought it might be good to pay a visit, say hello and maybe scrounge a ride with someone, ideally a 23 as this will give me some good insight. Unfortunately I still need to work so can only make the weekend and maybe the Monday. Appreciate some more info on the event though.
Anyway; be great to meet and have a chat. Best wishes; Al
Dear Swallow owners,
I have occasionally checked into the brokerage section to see if a Bayraider is for sale.
I am considering coming down to Mylor for the meet to see if I can get a ride, and a sense of the differences in handling between the boats. If you have any suggestions as to how I might hitch a ride for a short sail or two, I would appreciate it. I will be on board my Memory 19 and sailing round to Mylor.
