Last one. (Sorry for the commentary, apparently you can't post pictures without at least a 10 character comment. Hopefully they weren't too distracting...)
Wow! Look at how high she sits on her lines. No squatting here... (pics 59-61)

Was additional ballast added to the later models?
Thanks for posting those pictures, Mike. I knew it would be at least a week before I got it figured out and I was anxious to get them posted. My son is flying in from Colorado tomorrow and he will help me resize the rest. I'll post them soon.
I believe Kestrel is high on her lines because she is going to be carrying a lot of provisions. She is light now, but soon will not be. John's son and his girlfriend are planning to take her down the Inland Waterway next month and from there, to the Bahamas and the West Indies for the winter.
An adventure in the making.
I hope to get a shot of Kestrel under sail before they leave.
Gotta be very proud right about now !! ;)

BEAUTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D Dam fine lookin lil yacht
I now have Ariel #1 Kestrel on the hard near the Chester River in Maryland. I bought her a few months ago.
I also have Commander #266 "The Way" in the Severn River up from Annapolis in Round Bay on my mooring. I hope to get more sailing done in 2019 than I did in 2018.
I also have a couple Pearson Ensigns, and Boston Whalers.
