Hi Trouville. Missed your adventures on Scuttlebutt, so nice to read about your travels (travails) again.

Anyone who lives aboard a First 18 has my vote anyday.


That's the inside of mine.
They aren't the biggest boat afloat are they?

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome aboard trou, btw.

Arriving hear im still lost real life hasent yet caught up with me,yet,no doubt i will soon have to find my way,how long my rose tinted view will last i dont know but while it lasts its wonderful.

I thought no one knew me hear?all part of my new enviroment everything feels new.

Thanks every one

Ive just re read my post!For some reason i couldent finish my post i had to write a second part then post both,as i stood on a busy street the sun darkening the screen!

I see that my attempts to type--the "jjj "etc were registered??My laptop is not doing what it ought but what it wants??

The first 18s not a bad boat!She sails really well,while room is at a premium i only sleep aboard ,shes quite comfortable well thought out.

Of course its warm still and days can be spent on the beach or on the key doing odd jobs or in a cafe.

She dose have the very great advantage of being a size that can tie up in the smallest space there is.A very nice boat!So far her deck is leak resistant!
