I bid Grip Fast, Au revoir, this morning as her new owner drove away. Claude Bradette was a very happy fellow as he headed home.

Claude is in the middle, I am on the left and his son John Mark is on the Right.

Another shot of her headed to the great white north!

a very melancholy day.....

I will miss her very much, a great little boat!

Her future is to be sailed on Lake Champlain, what a wonderfull place for such a wonderfull boat.

What have I done.....

Lake Champlain is a perfect venue for these boats. Plenty of beautiful coves spread a day apart for fantastic cruising and the Burlington community has a race scene as well.
Do you recall in what town Claude intends to keep the boat?

He didn't say, he spoke very little english. He lives in Quebec so I assume he will keep it on the North end.

I would love to cruise up that way and see the Lake. I have heard that it is Beautifull.
