Like you site very much. Lucky to have wife and kids taking part. I sold my O'25 because nobody but me liked to sail. |

Hi! Great site and lots of useful information. We have an ODay 25 '75 model that we brought o Lake Norman, NC from Grosse Point, MI. I found it on Ebay and was the only bidder. Must have been good karma. Thanks to you for your great site! Skip Koski "Seamar" (little Shamrock") Lake Norman Yacht Club, Mooresville, NC |

Great website--am looking forward to more summer of 08 stuff--update when you can! We have an O'Day 25 in Arboles, Co. a fixed keel, tall rig--Her name is Sancha. We've worked on ours alot, too. We spent lots of time on her this summer and she performs well for us. It's almost time for us to haul out--only about 4 or 5 weekends left this year! Evelyn |

Hi Guys, Nice to learn more about the O'Day 25.I just bought a 1988 O'Day and it is my first sail boat. I now have my first season in and I love it. I sail out of Montague PEI Canada and have yet to make any long trips, but hope to maybe next year as my experience and competency grow. Regards, Bill |

Hello from O'Day land in Dallas. Very nice site. The lakes in your area are great.... wish we had some like them in this area. I was a postdoc at U Wisc from 1991 till 1994. My brother was there from ??? till 1990. He is still a member of the sail club at UW |
| Mark in NYC 2008.06.04 |
Very informative. Am looking into buying an O'Day 25. Some misconception on the draft and headroom inside the O'Day 25 though? |
| Ross in Tampa 2008.04.24 |
I have enjoyed your site every time I check it out. Love what you did with your electrical connections, really need to do that to my Oday 25. What kind of results are you getting from your 15 watt solar panel? That looks really good too. Have a good one, and keep up the site. Ross_in_tampa@yahoo.com |

Enjoyed your site, I have an O'Day 28 and we charter annually and I fix and rebuild boats as a hobby. I admire your ability to share your experiences, wish I wasn't so techno challenged. You kids will have memories of a life time from your experiences and journeys and they will always share those experiences and joys of your parenting long after your gone. |

Enjoyed your latest updates. Thank you both for the calendar. Beautiful pics. How about responding to some of these comments? It seems that a few of us have some questions. My O'Day 22 goes in Apr 28. Don't you still have ice up there on the Canadian side of Lake of the Woods(a small Wisconsin joke)? |
| Buddee-Gal Navigator 2007.03.27 |
OK Skipper............the snow is melting, the ice is slushy, The Chandlery goods are in! Stop playing with the "chopper" and get to fixin' the ship!!! |

Nice Blog, I can relate to your weather coming from maine. I do wish I had as much fresh water sailing as you, it must be great living near the great lakes. |
| David Hinds 2006.11.09 |
Hello Paul: Great site with all the information on an O'Day 25. It took me a lot of time to find this info on my 1978 O'day 25 "Comfort Zone". I have added quit a bit of enhanced extras as have you. Keep up the great work on this site, always pleased to read about the boat and your adventures. I can be reached at dhinds_pm@bresnan.net as I would like to show you some of the extras, such as a wooden bow pulpit which holds the anchor and looks great on my O'Day. Thanks again for a great site! Dave |
| Brenda and Jim 2006.10.21 |
Hi Paul Thanks for the tour of your new boat. She sure is nice. The damage to the trailer during transport sure looked scary. I suspect you are pretty fortunate that your boat did not end up laying on the ground in pieces. Anyways, take care |
| Bika 2006.09.19 |
Enjoyed ur video and music very much. Good editing job. I especially liked the sections where the percussion picked up. It looked like a few of those boats were ready for a knockdown. Keep up the good work. Bika_43@yahoo.com |
| Bika 2006.09.18 |
Read everything and looked at all your pictures in detail. Where do you keep your dingy when sailing? Good that your family can share the adventure. Sailing only from late April to early Sept. Must have been difficult to write the details of that trailer disaster and that Eau Claire hotel. Good luck, safe sailing, and keep blogging. Bika, O'Day 22 |
| Mike 2006.08.11 |
Thanks for a great site. Keep posting! Maybe add more step-by-step photos and descriptions! -Mike |

| Brian 2006.07.24 |
I have enjoyed reading your website. My gilrfriend and I own an Oday 20. We have looked at a couple of 25 foot boats and thought they would be perfect. Yours is nice, clean and quick. good infomration. I found the same in regards to weather as you did. I hand done a similar thing with weather information I made a spread sheet that contained the data and varibles. Good job What size of lake do you sail on. Brian from Saskatchewan Canada |
| Bill 2006.05.18 |
Loging in first, will read later. It is always fun and educational to read how others do what I've leanred the hard way. Enjoy your boat! |
| Roy 2006.05.18 |
Hi, That sure is a nice looking O'25. I have one also, a 1977, and while she looks pretty good for her age, yours really looks good. Best of luck sailing this year. I envy you the little kids to go along with you. |
