Hi, All- My wife and I are the new owners of the above T37 and I've tried contacting the admin person to update the roster and haven't gotten a reply (it's been a while- a few months at least).. Is that email still current?

We've renamed the boat "Javelina" and have her at a club in Davis Island, Fl. We love the boat, but have just started getting used to the quirks (having raced an Olson 30 for 5 years, this is quite a step in a different direction in terms of maneuverability!)

Any help is appreciated-

Ray

Welcome to the forum Ray. We're down in Cortez, FL and have owned ours for a few years. Love sailing on the bay. Not sure on the admin email.

Welcome to the board. The turn radius of the T37 takes some time to get use to coming from a smaller boat.

Man- tell me about it! No more coming in to the dock at warp speed and just back the main to stop.. We're figuring it out-- haven't hit anything or done any damage yet!

It's coming. Hitting something. I did my best one in Morgan City. Coming up to the docks from upstream. Shifted into reverse and throttled up. Forgot to listen for the transmission to engage and it won't engage if the engine rpms are too high. Rode up onto the creosote dock timbers and slid back off. The Admiral said she wasn't cleaning up the mess. Took me three hours of leaning over the toerail to get all the black off.
