Welcome to The "ALOHA BANKS" Clipper Marine 30 Web Page!
This web-blog is my online journal of the refitting project on my CM30 Clipper Marine Sailboat. You'll find
a variety of topics on the actual refitting as well as links to other sites on the web that I have found helpfull in
the project.
Here "She" is. This is the boat sitting in her slip on Karr Lake. The boat is now 90% complete. My ne goal
is to have her ready for the spring cruise sailing season.
Up date, Coast guard renaming and registration has been sent off and should
be received back any day, Re-Christening is planned for the last of June so we can sail on the 4th of July. I’m
setting up the single handed rigging and the living quarters are almost livable. Starting in July we will be spending our
weekend on the boat. It will be so good to final say the “ALOHA BANKS” is back on the water.
This is where it all started with Ricki
and me putting his boat in the water and taking mine out. At least the refit. Notice the cradle on the car hauler Ricki designed
and built to move his boat from Maryland to Raleigh with boat unseen.
That’s Ricki's Ford F350 full size diesel pulling the CM30 on our 27’ sailboat trailer.
Be sure to get in touch so I know you're out there! Use the contact page for our e-mails.
