Aquarius Sail Owners

Has been a busy 14 months. Cancer took Mom in Feb 2014. I did hospice for her. Was a 'good' death.
Her last directive, "Franklin, you have to stop 'camping out' like a bachelor at the bayhouse."

Re-modeling of Seabrook, TX house that Mom and Dad physically built in 1954 (She mixed mortar & He set cinderblocks) is coming 'together' as we are now slinging paint on the walls and making it our 'home'.

Speaking of paint, in April I had the ARC 21 dagger trunks repaired so hulls will no longer take on water. And, gave her a 'new' paint job!
Yep, we should be 'easy' to spot from the beach Currently we taking a vacation in Miami for 7th Annual Rum Festival. Got a chance to hit South Beach on Weds.
Any idea why women tattoo their boobs?

Re-rigging of ARC 21 will be completed shortly, and ready for "First Saturday" in May at Texas City Dike
Hope everyone will be trapping off a wire soon!

That's purdy

Nice job Franklin! Looks awesome!

It does look nice. I'd like to see it rigged.

The same reason someone would paint their boat that color

Cruising at a blistering 7 knots ..
Light air on our 1st Saturday of May 2015 at Texas City Dike, but also our first sail after trunks repaired and new paint

I painted my A cat that color and it looked awesome! I put black stripes on the side like the old Laser or phaser stripes on the 70's Cudas.

Everyone called the color "Over Early!"

i love that you kept the red tip on the mast... you never know about bridge clearance

Meeks Outboard (yes, a Mercury & Yamaha outboard motor repair shop) made vinyl graphics for my newly repaired/painted ARC 2101:
Thanks Steve & Becky!!

very well done Frankie....

Frank... Out Patient? Is that Cajun or French?

ˈau̇t-ˌpā-shənt is simply the Phonetic transcription of "Out Patient".
Which, when asked, is what I tell folks I do for a living:

"I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round"
