[quote=trappinny]Hey Pete!
I think you responded to one of my posts 2 years back about buying a beat-up Hobie21sc that was sitting on a mooring in Lake George.  Very glad I paid attention to all the advice and warning signs, because the boat I ended up with is a beauty.

I am very glad that something like fleet238 exists, I feel like I am wearing a scarlet letter asking for a place to go up here in Lake George. I was actually shoo'd away from a marina 2 days ago as soon as I said catamaran, prompting this post looking for a way out.  I actually put the boat up for sale because of all this as well.  Mostly because I cannot find a place to land her, and because at the moment I will be doing most of my sailing solo.  The 5.8 is just a little too much to handle solo on some days, and I'm 225-230# (not too far off for the spec race weight I believe).  I love the idea of being able to leave the boat rigged on land (paying appropriate fees of course), and pick the day to sail based on conditions I can handle.

I will try to get down there next weekend and check Driftwood out, and hopefully work out a deal for the remainder of the season.  A late season for me as there were many repairs and handful of upgrades made. I still have a little work left to do to my trailer. I finished rewiring, new lighting, and tires,; then saw my inboard seals were blown out, so I still need rebuild the hubs and she'll be mobile.

I will also touch base with the facebook page, thanks so much for responding!
Cheers!
