The '86 Ford w/ 46,000 miles taken out in front looking towards the shuffleboard courts.
The shuffleboard courts beside the meeting hall and across the street from the house
The pool room just inside from the swimming pool
Guess this is the room where they gossip when it's raining out
The gym in the meeting hall
Entrance to the old clubhouse now the meeting hall
Looking North on the sea wall the house is behind the white van
The pool where the blue hairs hangout and catch up on the gossip. No one swims they just "bob".
The Bay looking west from the pool area and showing the exit from the Bay that goes into Tampa Bay
The pool area taken from the south and facing the house

One of the first trial runs. This trimaran is easily trailerable as the outriggers fold up underneath. The mast is carbon fiber, so strong but lightweight, and the sails are furlling and made out of kevlar. Note how the main is wound around the boom.
