New Boat 4 Sled

Huge Kudos to crew of PERPLEXITY! "To windward for over two days in 20k-30k and 10-12' cross seas were trying conditions," writes Jim Quanci. Proud to know these guys and cheer their accomplishment.

As we know, due to its illustrious history, course, and challenging weather the Sydney/Hobart Race has strict qualification and safety standards. Even still, 35 out of 128 boats, more than 1/4 of the fleet retired. Indicative of the rugged conditions on the course and even more reason for applauding PERPLEXITY's performance. As mentioned above, we are proud to know this team. And I would be remiss to remind that PERPLEXITY, an Express 37, was designed by Carl Schumacher and built by friends here in Santa Cruz 40 years ago.

Happy New Year All!

There is an often quotes saying ‘that if you have to ask the price of the sailboat, then you can not afford it’. Well, this boat is less affordable than the others I couldn’t afford and bought. I have fondness for cold moulded boats. I guess I to be content with looking at the boat at the past Wooden Boat Festival.

If Endangered Species is not your cup of tea, maybe Timberwolf would be. This sweet Farr 38's record is impeccable both in the ocean and on the Bay.
