    Hi Folks, I bought the Kendall 32 #6 'Papillion' that was on sailboat listings, bought on the 23rd of May.  We did some work added some stuff and took off from Maryland on the 5th June arrived BV after a few stops on the Bay and one in Bermuda , last night. Great sail, love the boat. More will come as we move along.  changed name to Nerites. 

    Ill have to update my photo , now that I don't have 365 anymore!

    best days run was 144 miles. our average speed was 4.7kts... we did motor when we couldn't maintain 3kts during the day... at night we typically just let her sit or sail slow so yeah we made some fast days to average 4.7 even spending more than 24 hours drifting with no wind while waiting for gasket maker to set....
