Hi Every one my name is Jim Knowles and I live in NSW Australia. Some of you may be aware that I own two beautiful Skagits (the only ones in Australia"). I have a 1958 14ft Sportster and a 1959 20ft Skagit Express. Both have been magnificently restored and look fantastic.
My wife and I attended the 50th Skagit anniversary at La Conner several years ago and met with many Skagit owners, one in particular was Doug Griffith who has since become a great friend. We have cruised the San Juan islands several times on his 20 Skagit called "Dreamin" along with many other Skagit, Bellboy and Dorsett owners.
The story of how I got my Skagit in Australia is for another post but it is a great story.
I will try to post some pictures of my boats, I hope to hear from you again.
Regards
Jim
