I really wish I could do this right the first time.
Anyway Had the admiral out last week for the final sail of the year. Over the last 6 weeks we moved the boat from Kinzua to Moraine St. Park to check out the marina and lake. It is 2 hrs closer to my house but truly qualifies as a "dinky W Pa. lake as someone on the forum pointed out earlier. However there are 2 other R22s' docked there besides myself, one recycled one bought from GB and one of stans' abandoned orphans from 83. I haven't met the owner of the recycle but have found a kindred spirit on the orphaned one. He was out on the water last week and happened to bring his camera along so I finally got some shots of my boat with a full crew.   |

Thanks for sharing the photos, Nice fall color. I have been trying to get in my final fall sail of the season but the weather has not been cooperating. All these small craft warnings last weekend and this, winds 15kts gusts to 25. Monday and Tuesday look like sunny days even though Tuesday looks like more wind. I am determined to get in one more overnight sail and plan to play hooky from work Monday and Tuesday. I have a down sleeping bag, long johns, hat, gloves, wooly socks, warm rum drink and the Coleman lantern to keep me warm. Don't worry I plan to use the pop top enclosure with lots of draft when using the lantern and promise to turn it off at bed time. Hope to have some photos and trip log to post next week.

Very nice. Love those Fall colors and the brilliant sun. We haven't
had too many days like that. Still hoping for a couple more.

Chris,
The Coleman lantern is definitely the hot hookup (pun intended) for heating the cabin in chilly weather. In May when we launched the temp overnight hit 38* and we were snug and comfortable. The only problem was contemplating the trip to the head at 3:30 am or so. Definitely regretting the half case of beer consumed during the evening. I'm going to have to adopt Rummys' philosophy of hard liquor consumption in order to stay warm. Wish I was still sailing John S

Rummy,
Stern ladder is a detachable model stowed under the seats in the cockpit. After blowing my budget stripping the hull and re painting it was the affordable solution. By the way I'm impressed you decided to paint RumRunner in Steeler Black and gold. Looks great!!! Happy sailing John S
