After graduating I used to race an Olympic 470 #984. As I aged in life I sailed and owned a Hunter and later a Catalina. I miss sailing. By the way look at MeCray. His other prints are just as beautiful and impressive. Too bad he passed in 2017. Sincerely, RVB ( RICK) Comrade! From the height of the soling we called the 470-ers as slimy footed, because the algae on their wet feet I was on the wire in boat HUN-61 then moved to soling HUN-111, see my avatar pic. Just like you, i miss those days. SaltyScot and RVB 2
RVB Posted 18 hours ago #153 Posted 18 hours ago Nice to meet another 470 lover! Sure do miss those days. Mine was a light blue Vanguard!

Sailing has moved to the top of my all time favorite things to do (I love being on or in the water anyway, always have). MeCray is a point of discussion in our household at the moment.......
