Hi all, Jim here
I pick up my new (to me) Seal 22 on Sunday. Excited is an understatement! I have been around boats all my life and panicked when I had to sell my rib this summer, so naturally I am very happy to be able to get back out on the water. This will, however, be the first sailing boat I have owned and she will effectively be teaching me to sail, bar a couple of past jaunts out on a sunspot 15 (Google it) and a mirror dinghy.
I have a wife, a boy (20 months), a girl (17 days) and a dog, and I have this really romantic vision of doing a few overnighters, but realistically I can't see this happening for a couple of years. It's nice to dream, though.
The Seal is a mark 3 in excellent condition with a 10hp diesel inboard. Watch this space for stories of future adventures (hopefully)
Ttfn
Jim
