Super stoked to share the news re: becoming new stewards of forum member Rafici's beloved 2002 Com-Pac 25, SV Solitude! Here are a few videos featuring my 25!

Thank you so much!!! I'm so happy you liked the videos! I'm absolutely over-the-moon and on Cloud 9 re: my 25!

Now that you have your 19, I hope you might be able to join in the 2025 Apostle Islands Com-Pac Flotilla next summer!

Working on it! Next step is to get the trailer swapped out... will start on that as soon as the new trailer is ready for pickup. :-)

Thinking about possibly doing some videos of my own, too.

That would be amazing if you can come! Are you getting a new trailer from Triad? I'd be curious who you use -- I have also heard great things about Sail Trailers out of Georgia.

Definitely start making videos about your 19! In my experience, with creating Com-Pac vids of my Legacy, 23, and 25, it seems there are a lot of folks hungry for online content regarding Com-Pac sailboats. Here are some Com-Pac YouTubers I've come across:

Small Sailboat Big Water (https://www.youtube.com/@smallsailboatbigwater3959)

Squally Heifer Adventures (https://www.youtube.com/@squallyheiferadventures)

Yes... the new trailer is being made by Triad. They're just a couple of hours up the road from me, so I was happy to keep the business in North Carolina. They also had the best price.

I also got a quote from Sail Trailers in Georgia when I was looking for a vendor.

I'm certainly thinking about it! There's lots of people making videos with 16's and 23's... but I haven't really seen many videos featuring 19's (or Eclipses... other than Small Craft Tasmania).

I've been involved with video in other parts of my life, so I suppose it makes sense to pursue it with sailing, also.

Pretty sure all of those YouTube channels have shown up on my suggested page at one time or another. :-)
