    I find it interesting that one of the photos of what it could look like is Chucks Farallon
    Not sure how the San Juan is going to look like that but I guess its close huh :BigHappy1:

        Joe, Here's my Mini-Farallon (Skagit) as one member calls it. They do look some what the same as far as colors go,carperts,etc except the Farallon had tons of wood in it that was done by you & Marty. Back, in 2009? at Lake Whatcom there was a Skagit 20 tied up next to me at the dock when i had the Farallon. I wish i had taken a picture that day as two years later the Farallon was sold back East in CT and i ended up with the Skagit (Bruce Drake's) that was tied up next to me that day. Also the picture that shows my son and i in the Farallon was taken by Bruce's wife in the Skagit 20 a year before i got it from Bruce.....Small world. Chuck

          How to make Chuck reappear

          It is much better when a boat has a skipper....and Kitsap background as well.

            Offshore at Lake Whatcom

            Chuck, no Farallon in sight but still my favorite picture of the Offshore at the Lake Whatcom event. Memory is fuzzy but I suspect that it is a Marty picture.

                Man, I love those big hulled Skagits, Dorsets, and Bell Boys! Can't wait to get mine on the water!

                That last shot would be perfect without the modern runabout on the left. What a great shot!

                  John,This picture is one of my favorites. It was taken on one of our outing going around the northend of Bainbridge Island by the Agate Pass bridge. The Skagit 17 i had owned back in 1996 and sold to GregJ who lives 4 houses from me. Chuck

                    Bruce, That does look like a "Marty" picture. Just behind you , there was a plank that i guess you could call a dock, where i had the Farallon tied up. By the time you pull out in the morning i think i had the Farallon back on the trailer with motor problems. Best,Chuck

                      Is it a Farallon??

                      The only picture I have with a boat near me at the dock at Lake Whatcom.

                        Yep That was the "so called dock". I must have put it back on the trailer before you took that picture. Chuck

                          Nice shot, Chuck! I know those waters well as I go through the passage on the way to Jeff Head for fishing and other play time activities.
