A shoutout to Oscar and Kay, who were nice enough to give me a tour of their new-to-them 53' Hatteras MY yesterday. There was a concours event at KIYC, and they happened to be there with their boat, so I got the tour.
There is no substitute for a boat that has always been taken good care of and never allowed to run down. "Lady Kay" is a complete gem- looks even better in the actual than in the photos. He's going to have to really work to find projects to keep him busy this winter.

He can come down to Colonial Beach and work on my boat. Plenty of projects to get through a couple of winters. I'm a giver like that.

The Brigadoon was perfect when MikeP bought it from Charles Maltbie but he still found projects to do.

Re: tip of the Hatt
Mike, did enjoy his projects, that's for certain. It was always interesting to see how everything miraculously went back together when Loretta was like one day away and headed home fast. It was amazing how fast he could put everything back together.
