San Juan 21 Class Association

Hi all! I am the new owner of boat 1950. Currently powering through 4 years of neglect but when she's done she'll be a fun boat! Hope to find other owners in the area

We are new to sailing, bought #2184 back in September and sail on Eagle Creek

Hi there!!!! Nice to see someone else from Indy.

Welcome aboard and congrats on your new boat. Let us know how we can help if you need any info.

cheers

Thanks for the welcomes. We have power boated for years, so the sailing is presenting a learning curve. We really enjoyed it in the few months we had before winter. Had 1 short sailing lesson, the rest we have been trying to learn as much as possible from sailing web sites and forums. Very glad to have come across this one. We hope to add a jib down haul to our boat before spring, and an anchor light up on the mast. Any help and education is greatly appreciated.

A jib downhaul is a great addition, particularly when you need to get it down in a hurry. I have never put a mast light on since it isn't required for our size boat. It seems like it is doomed to getting smashed while raising/lowering the mast. Also, That is one less large hole in the deck. I use an LED lantern for an anchor light pulled up the jib halyard when I anchor out.
