    Short of being with God in his Kingdom, there is no better place to be than on a Wooden Boat under the best of circumstances. And the more, the Merrier!

    Epic video! You do have the best job. Your work keeps the vision of sailing, the people involved, and their resulting boats, alive and well. OCH stops the breed from vanishing and I think, helps it grow!

    What can I say the baton being passed, on the job training, love the kids. It is really nice to see young blood learning to sail, and what better way to learn. ” Great Video”

    Such a high degree of sailing a common sailor may never acheive, but what every sailors’ dreams are made of…

    It’s wonderful for a midwestern wooden boat enthusiast to be able to view these videos!

    Gorgeous photography, gorgeous boats, gorgeous early morning light…and agreed that watching the baton being passed to another generation is what it’s all about. This one may be my new favorite.

    My favorite part was Brian giving tips on how to trim the spinnaker…on the job training without the stress of having to win. Perfect!
