Cheers Rob,
Yes, I've seen Isabella II in Salt Pan and remember passing every so often. We're in Careel, so not far away and spend some afternoons in Little Refuge Cove, just near Salt Pan.

I'm sure we'll eventually meet up and be able to share some stories.

Haven't had a Top Hat gathering for a while!

Curly Tops is certainly well loved and sailed. Nowhere near retirement.

Sonia sailed her down to Sydney a couple of weeks ago for the weekend.

You must have seen her just before she was slipped because she has a lovely clean bottom now.
And a very fancy, brand new asymmetrical spinnaker which made Curly Tops Fly all the way back from Sydney Harbour to Pittwater.

Sea Lady was rafted up alongside Curly Tops earlier this year.

Sea Lady is wearing her pink sunshade. Curly Tops is on the left, (black mast) and the boat to the right is what Dave now has after selling Peppercorn.

Hey Diana, nice to hear from you, and sorry to hear about Sea Lady getting messed up! Hope she's fixed soon!

The post I made about Curly was last September, and back then she looked a little on the weedy side and as if she hadn't been out for a while, so I'm glad she's still about. I don't see or hear from her since she moved away from across the road.
