Okay, okay, he doesn't have a beard or a red suit or a nose like a cherry, but the twinkle and the red sleigh full of toys for good girls and boys? He's got that! Thank you Harry Carpenter of Flying Scot Inc. for delivering Flying Scot #6133, The Scuppernong.  *the Flying Scot is a 60-year-old sloop design by Gordon K "Sandy" Douglass.
I know, I know, she who would tell so execrable a pun is just as like to pick a pocket.

Couple weeks ago at Shelburne's SmallBoatExchange saw a sweet sixties Douglass Scot, complete with sailboat trailer, correct mast, bottom paint, an' three winches at no extra charge. Probly throw in the Sailfish sitting in the grass next to it. Proprietor told Lakeboy the price was a grand.

What a place ! ( At the Vt store, told Mrs of some Florida boys that'd have that Scot paid for and headin' 1600 miles south in about 90 seconds. ) Leave a Reply. |
