Homeward bound. Parry Sound

Hello all fellow boaters and landlubbers!!! Bice and I spent a most remarkable afternoon aboard "Chippewa"
As the pictures show, She is a classic. A unique boat, most of the hardware is bronze including the anchors!!



Owned by "semi" retired mechanical engineer Mark Vollmer. Mark spent 4 years as a designer for C & C yachts.
"Chippewa" is finished in Awlgrip clearcoat. Marks lifelong companion is an ace bridge player who specializes in "stink bids". For those of you who play bridge, you know what I write.
The boat is at "SBW" Sound Boat Works. I highly recommend SBW as a nice quite place to spend a night with other like minded sailors. Mark looks a little shell shocked in the pictures

because he invited 2 sets of sailors aboard who were REALLY ready for some shore leave!!!!
The other couple was from "Leadership" a CS40.
For those who really took a close look at the pictures....Yes, The yacht is moored inside a floating "coverall"
(Take note Marian and Willie)

Timbit out.
