Yes, I went overboard a bit. I had talked to another artist up near our cottage in Door County, WI about doing a painting of my boat. He said he had so many commissioned works he couldn't get to it till later in 2016. Well, he gave me a call right before Christmas, and said it was done! Picked it up today, and here it is. A very different style of painting, and he added the bay in Ephraim as a backdrop.

Great painting. As a resident of Fish Creek; I'll be looking for you next summer.

Gerry,
I sail the boat down in Milwaukee still. Eventually I'll move it near our place in Sister Bay. The artist just painted us in Eagle Harbor.

Great painting Rob. I am envious of both you and Gerry. My wife and I vacationed in Door County this past summer. We stayed in Egg Harbour and rented a slip at the marina for our Compact 19. What a great sailing area! I saw another Compac while we were there, a catboat very similar to your boat except it had a dark blue hull. Really enjoyed the Maritime Museum in Sturgeon Bay. Hope to get back to Door County real soon.
