Welcome New Guy


 

Hello Chris,

Congratulations on your T27 #466. They are really great old boats if you maintain them a bit. They are nice sailors too, and quite forgiving.

How do you propose to get #466 back to Nashville, TN? Will you sail her down to the Chesapeake and then have her hauled? Will you be calling one of the lakes outside Nashville your home port? What engine does #466 have?

Welcome!

Hi Everyone,

I've been poking around here for a while now and have been a member but
just pulled the trigger on my very own T-27 this weekend. I'm the
proud owner of Hull # 466. She's in NJ right now but I'm trying to get
her to Nashville. Yes, an unlikely destination but the web grows a bit
bigger now. I'll be checking in I'm sure for all the particulars and
all of your worldly advise. This is my first centerboard boat but it
didin't seem to difficult to get a handle on.

Boys these boats sail well. I fell in love and I can't wait to learn
all the little tricks and details. I'll post some photos when I have
them, I just wanted to introduce myself.

Thanks.

Chris DiCroce

Hi Caleb,

Thanks so much. I'm having her trucked ($$$). I would love to have
sailed her down but my schedule doesn't allow it. I'll be sailing her
on Old Hickory Lake which is a part of the intracoastal waterway. From
the Great Lakes to the Gulf, we're in the middle. Someday very soon
I'll make that trip.

She has a Yanmar 2GM diesel, new rigging (standing and running), Hood
R.F, and lots of little details. The previous owner was the second
owner and he loved her very much. Family outgrew her. He ook very good
care of her and is an awsome guy.

I love the way she sails and for me as a single handed sailer who just
wants a little more "heft" to my boat... she's perfect.

Cheers
