Just bought a 1984 CP19 (Hull #256) and towed her to Southern Maine from Mass.  Looking forward to exploring Casco Bay and beyond as soon as it warms up a few degrees!  Glad to have found this great resource too.

Nice, clean looking boat. You will have a lot of enjoyment from her! This forum will be a great source of support.

Looks great!

I wonder, is it really tongue light? Looks like it is sitting pretty far back maybe?

At any rate, you will love her! the 19 is a great boat! Be sure to post pictures of some mods on that thing so we can all copy them  ;D ;D ;D

Hey Tug, 

Welcome to the site!  From whom did you buy your 19?

Hi mike,   welcome to the forum, and congratulations on the purchase of the boat..   where are you in maine?  I am planning on heading up to the maine boat builders show next month.   we are in PA, and our boat is currently in NJ..   but,  i love maine, and I look for any and every opportunity to travel up there.    it has been many years since i have attended the boat show, so i am particularly happy to have that in the plans for this year. 

I am sure that you will have a blast on casco bay with the cp 19..    spring can't come fast enough!    jt

Hey Tim,
Thanks to you and all for the greetings.  I hesitate to put anyone's name online, but I can say that I bought her from a guy in Chicopee, MA and her name was "Not Sirius".  She's in great condition and it's obvious that he took very good care of her.  Full Hull number is ABV00256M84G.  Not sure if she was registered on the site but I plan to register once I've decided on her new name.  The site is great and a wealth of information.  Spring can't come soon enough.  Thanks again, 
Mike

   Hi Mike and welcome to one of the best sailboat sites in the universe! Your 19 is a beauty and I'm sure you'll be very happy with her.
   I must say I'm extremely jealous...you posted a photo on your very first post...it took me 2 years to learn.

JT:  Due to the fact of my Florida trip being postponed, I may go the the Maine Boatbuilders Show...I'll keep you posted.

Welcome Mike!

You're a lucky guy.  Bob23 is getting soft in his old age.  No mention of the outrageous billing for the site initiation fee. :D

Billy

Of coarse he did not mention the "outrageous" fee.

There is however, a "perfectly acceptable" that is owed. And I am sure when the time is right, Bob will bring up the high...but fare....amount.

And I am sure that Mike will pay whatever said fee is, just like we all have done :)

Huh Bob?  ;)

Not sure about the tongue weight Mac but I'll have to check it out.  Two trailer issues are my first projects anyway.  Putting a new axle on it next week (reason for the jack stands), and a whole new wiring harness and lights.  Already put new wheels and tires on the day I picked her up.  Just gotta clear away the snow drifts first...

Bob23

Well, yes- Almost forgot.
   Tug: I normally charge $5000.00 initiation fee to be a member here...my 23 has developed an apetite for very expensive goodies and my building contractor job just aint cutting it. Some have, in a round about way, suggested this is highway robbery. Not so. As you yourself has stated in your very first post, this is a "great resource". So one great resource deserves another.
   You may drop the small unmarked bills in a plain brown paper bag next to the Compac exhibit at the Annapolis Sailboat show in October....make sure you're not followed!

Tug,

If you're not comfortable doing that I will gladly "mule" the funds for you.  Just drop the small unmarked bills in a plain brown paper bag in the mail to me.  I'll make sure Bob what's his name gets it.
