Hello! Hello! Hello!

[Gmartin]

I just wanted to pop in and say hello and thanks to Tim for helping me out here. I'm new to boating and looking at picking up a classic project boat for my son and I. We found a '61 Dorsett San Juan sitting in the weeds and hope we can strike a deal to pick it up. Then we can cruise the Columbia in retro-style.

So with a little luck I will have a good project and will be asking tons of dumb questions from you...the experts!

Welcome

Nice find! We have several happy Dorsett owners in the club, check out the photo gallery from the Blake Island cruise for a couple of really pretty ones.

And no worries on dumb questions, we give some dumb answers so it works out ...

Welcome to the club.
I think you will enjoy the folks here..

Mine is a 1960 and needs all the wood and plex replaced.
One of these days I hope..

Hello Gmartin and welcome from another nOOb here! irate:

Yeah Dorsetts are beautiful boats.

Except they can be hard to back into the driveway as they are always appearing to be turning as the sides are one big swoopy curve.
Took me a few tries backing up to learn to ignore the hull and watch the trailer tires back when we had one in the fleet.
