Welcome Greg!!! No Newcomer to Newporters here!!! Greg has worked and sailed on Etiole (hull # 10) since he was 10 years old.
His mom, in an email to me a year or so ago, said "We lived aboard almost 20 years and did long distance cruising for four years - Up to San Francisco and the Sacramento Delta, offshore islands of SoCal to Mexico, Cabo, LaPaz, crossed to the mainland and down and around to Puerto Angel. Crossed Tejuanepec to El Salvador, Costa Rica to Panama. All with just the three of us [and son Greg was only ten when we began the trip]. Really hope to about some of those adventures

THE KETCHER'S EDGE - THE MIZZEN STAYSAIL. HOW MANY NEWPORTERS ARE STILL USING THESE, LIKE MARION SEAMEN'S ETIOLE. Note that the staysail extends well beyond the obvious red behind the mizzen sail and the mule. More discussion to come

THE ROSTER
Muf, our Keeper of the Roster, has updated it. But he still needs information on boats out there that he doesn't have, like new owners, old owners, where any of the boats are. We don't post the roster on the web site, it is only sent to owners. Please send him anything you might have, or call him at:

Captain Clyde's Newporter sites:
and
The Ning site has been given a reprieve. I have transferred my Ning site to the blogspot site and will leave it there. I am keeping my Ning site open as a home for my photos and drawings.
Many of my photos there do not relate to Newporters, but a search through my collection may prove useful for your studies.
My drawings are not accurate in many respects as a result of the PAINT program used to draw them, There is no accurate scale and at best they are only useful to indicate some specific detail. Some are inaccurate because of my poor memory. Use them to help you think, not as a detailed presentation of the subject matter.
If any of you want to start a web site I suggest you remember what has happened to both my Ning site and this site (which is a Ning site) and remember that my Blogspot site is free and Blogspot's owner (Google) has promised to keep it that way.
Clyde's email:
Put 'Newporter' on Subject Line. Email is the best way to contact me. I do not regularly look at this site or its messaging system. Email will get to me post-haste.
