    QuarathHal,

    So what is the story behind your growing collection. Are you rehabbing and reselling, starting a sailing school, sailboat rental business, or starting an invasion fleet.


    I think he is trying to invade Tahoe starting at Ski Beach in Incline Village.

    We should have a cat weekend/week up here is anyone is game.
    We can have some racing and boat camping I'll provide the Stiletto 27 as mothership.

    Al



    That actually sounds awesome. I'd love to sail a Stilletto 27 it is on my list of boats I'd like to have.

    No sure how realistic it is. Tahoe's not out of reach far, but a bit of a stretch on the budget. We were hoping to take the kids on a cruise this year and it kinda fell through so I would love to find a good consolation prize. We camp at the lake all summer so if we vacation I don't want to camp. Camping's fun but it's also work and a lot of extra gear.. I need something cheap but with reasonable rooms. Don't need the Ritz or anything. Then just a place I can leave the boat(s) rigged for the duration. I'd want make a week or so out if it.

    It is still bit of a pipe dream as far financing goes right now but if you got any connections for something like that in Tahoe I will definitely consider the possibility.

    We have the Tahoe figured out nicely.
    If you want to come out during the summer let me know what dates you are thinking.
    You can use my P19 if you dont want to drag your P18 out here.

    We moor the Stiletto off the beach all the time and we can just tie the smaller cats alongside.

    Private message me or Facebook message to swap contact info.

    Cheers

    Wow what an offer. If I sail a P19 I'm not sure I'll feel like I can go back to just my P18. lol

  • And so the dastardly plan to sail cats and drink beer on lake Tahoe is coming together.

    This will be a fun summer for sure.

    Cant wait about 7 more weeks till sailing season and I can get the Stiletto on the Buoy.
    P19 is coming along. got the adjuster off ebay and installed, sails in shop for TLC. Tramp having new Zip put in.

    Any more west coasters want to join us up at Tahoe?

    Cheers

    Al
  • Just so ya know I come with a party of 5. My oldest is just about to graduate high school and my youngest is just about to start high school so no infants here. Three of us are heavyweights which makes for good sailing in high winds. That's why I like my P18 so much. I would probably sink one of Hal's H16s.

    Is there a name for this thing yet? Al & Hal's Brewfest with some occasional sailing?

    That's why I decided to get the 2 Prindle 16s out of Idaho for $200. I figure if I don't get around to getting one of them in the water I can at least sell the parts for more than enough to pay for them and use some to fuel my addiction. At the very least I have lots of spare parts if I need them for the P18. Same for the H17. It needs some softspot and wing socket repair but even without it ended being free so was well worth hauling it home. My back yard does look a bit redneck right now though.

  • Bill I like the "Sir" part. YOU ARE a true southern gen-tal-man. Prolly means there is a mens club in the neighborhood.. That "status" could be cuz you bee the only one in the block who knowes how important is is to sheet in and haul arse.. U Got to get out to the tahoe this summer hang out on the lake. I knoe that you can figure out a way as the fees from marketing advice for the dealership will pay for the trip.. AND AL. Nothing dastardly about a brooski or two. Especially on the dack looking over the lake !! These guys have no idea. Only danger is they may be moving her soon. Good news.. More customers for the dealership. Dealership NEWS.. a new H14 300$ and yet one more 16 for 250$ in the works. YES A Fleet.. Opps not a "A cat" fleet Damn Cheers Hal......

    re: summer marketing meeting lake tahoe

    dear mr. liske, first i would like to congradulate you on your thriving new business! your vision is boldly leading the pack for a beachcat resurgence, a fact that has not gone unnoticed with you peers. we feel that you are poised to dominate sales growth in the wine belt as you have purchased nearly every vintage craft in the tri-state area. exciting news indeed!

    even more exciting news is you fortuitis selection of the famed marketing firm of DEWEY, CHEATUM, AND HOWE as you partner in crime, so to speak. this powerful combination of your ambitious goals with our unscrupulus and shady tactics is guaranteed to leave your customers with that "what just happened ?" feeling every time, especially on lap dance tuesdays! it is with great pleasure that i accept your invitation to discuss business and such in beautiful northern california this summer. i am confident we can concoct several hairbrained and downright silly ideas for dumping product on the unwashed masses. i will have my people contact your people and leave prank phone calls that make no sense. thanks again for your consideration in these most important matters!

    yours truly, bill harris
    c.e.o., DEWEY, CHEATUM, AND HOWE

    Summer is upon us, when you coming up for some sailing?
    Took the Stiletto out last weekend and have the P19 ready to roll too.

    Cheers

  • Just picked up a H-18. Not in love with the H17 that I have cuz it is a PITA to tack.. Going to sail 2 weekends a month this summer.. Plans for June include the regatta at Hunington and perhaps a sail at woodward with that crowd BUT it could be replaced with a trip to Tahoe.. Our place is in incline V. on the lake side of the main drag off of the road that goes up to the golf course across the HY. Have some work to do on the new 18 but would like to try her out up there. She is a better boat for 2 than the 17. I will check with the boss about the timing cuz she will want to come and veg.. I am interested in sailing in the Stiletto.. News at 11 Cheers Hal

  • How are the sails on your 17? Mine are pretty bad. Mine is still in pieces to many projects I have not got back to the repairs. Was kinda discouraged by my soft spot repair on it. It did not seem to work very well.

    Have you read the section in Rick Whites book on the single handed cats? It might have some pointers for tacks.
