Hi every one,
I just found this forum by accident. I am the proud owner of a 1968 voyager 42.( Flush deck motoryacht) Yeap a woody. I have owned Sea Rose since 1988. She is very much a part of me as I have extensively customized her. She is in excellent shape. Powered by twin Detroit V6 53 's. We have traveled from Old Saybrook Ct. ( home port) all the way to Jupiter Fla. and back. She has been up the Erie canal, Chesapeake Bay, All the islands in and around Cape Cod, Yada, yada, yada.
I will try to post some pictures. I am a USCG licensed captain, I have taught the state of Ct. Basic boating class, as well as the us power squadron's course. Also a retired teacher, I do all my own wood work, canvas and most of everything else, except engine work. I do all the maintenance, and winterizing. :D

Welcome home! Nice to have another woodie around and someone to look to for advice on the fine art of woodworking.
