Commander 195 permission to board

[C-195]

Picked up Commander 195 after a 17 year stay in Boothbay Harbor ME this past August. Moved her down to Noank CT and have been sailing there for the last 3 weeks or so, trying to enjoy her as much as possible before the season ends.

Nothing major to do but plenty of small things to attend to before next spring to make her Bristol.

Thanks all for the stockpile of wisdom on how to care for these fine old ships. I am told C-195 has not been registered with the association before so glad you all now have my back.

Pictures to follow in the spring.

Completely unfair to make us wait so long for photos of the long lost C195!

p.s. You might ask Bill to move your post / 195 thread to the Gallery.

Never before seen by the forum apparently. She looks good for being close to 50 years. BTW thanks for all the posts suggesting 6 HP Tohatsu would both fit and power a Commander just fine. Our marina guy told me nothing would fit. It's tight but works like a charm.



Even my wife is enjoying the old girl.

No link????

I tried posting my pics to DropBox and Facebook and then pasting the link here. How does everyone else add their pictures? Which service do they use typically to get a URL for their pics?

This most excellent site let's you load them up without another hosting site. Go to "Go Advanced" and scroll down to "Manage Attachments". You have a couple of options there.

As promised. Trying again to post pics of Commander 195. Needs a little paint and varnish same as I need a shave and shoeshine.

She looks quite seaworthy. No lifelines declutters the deck! Thanks for the pix. Keep 'em coming.
