Title: ComPac 23/2 - Meet Pearl
Post by: twinswin on August 15, 2010, 10:03:30 AM
"Pearl" is our new addition.  She joins our family as of today.  I can't wait to get out on the water with her.

Hi, Pearl:
   Glad to have you aboard. What year were you born? I was born in 1985 and my name is "Koinonia". I'm a 23/2 currently in NJ under the care of Bob23. Where does Bruce sail you?
Koinonia.

Hi Koinonia, he plans to put me in a slip at Lewis and Clark lake in Yankton, SD.  Well, that is as soon as a slip becomes available.  I think Matt of HideAway fame spent some time on that lake in his youth.  Until a slip becomes available, I will be trailered a few blocks to the ramp, mast up.  I was born in 1984. I am really exited that Bruce will be returning from Afghanistan in a month or so, I have yet to actually meet him.  I hope we can get some sailing in before winter.

Nice to meet you,
Pearl

Bruce - Yes we sailed Lewis & Clark Lake for many years when we lived in Wayne NE.  Back then it was in an AMF Puffer and later an O'Day Daysailor II named Magic. Lots of good memories!    Settle a debate for us if you could - What town were you driving through in the picture?  Looks very familiar -- Welcome aboard Matt

That is the PO towing the boat through the wonderful city of Spicer, MN on Green Lake.  Spicer is Nicer.

Bruce - 
thanks-- Looked a lot like a Central City Ne - so we were both wrong .Ha     I've heard the main boat ramp by the marina is pretty slick - We never used that one but I noticed they use a tractor to launch.    Matt
