Jon's elegant Pathfinder


Jon's blog of his Pathfinder adventures are here . Above is a pic that shows really nicely, how elegant a Pathfinder can look, and below that, one of his regular (and very charming) crew supervises security on the beach.

A fine Ontario Houdini

Burton sent this great shot of his Houdini "Jackrabbit", which he built a few years back and cruised on Lake Superior, the Ottawa River, and other Canadian inland waterways. Thanks Burton.

Ruby Merle at the Geelong WB Festival

 Two fine pics of Ruby Merle, a recently restored 'couta boat which won the Concours d'Elegance at the 2012 Geelong Wooden Boat Festival. The pictures were taken by 'Miniopterus' and he tells me there may be more soon.

on a roll here...there IS something about Navigator




Three pics sent from Owen Sinclair, owner of 'Tusk' (above with yellow trim) of a trip with the Johnstone boat 'Korora' around the Abel Tasman National Park coastline in New Zealand.  Nice work Dave and Owen- keep them coming!

Navigator 'Annie' at Mallacoota Victoria



A lovely picnic spot on the far shore of the 'bottom lake' at Mallacoota and  a jetty within a small inlet at 'The Narrows". Those clouds emptied themselves on us on the return journey...
