Read the log of Rhapsody and her Crew
She is berthed at Applegate
Cove Marina on Kerr Lake, Oklahoma (35
21 86n - 94 49 50w). Kerr Lake is a pool elevation lake for the Arkansas
River (McClellan/Kerr
Navigation System) which affords Oklahoma boater an outlet to the Mississippi River and Gulf of
Mexico.
Cape Dory Yachts were constructed in Taunton, MA but are no longer in production. They are quality built vessels with a fine tradition of quality and seaworthiness. Also, the above link to the Cape Dory Sailboat Owners Association provides owners and would be owners with a vast array of information. The bulletin board is a very valuable asset for any boat owner, not to mention a Cape Dory owner!
The
picture at the right was taken on November 20, 2006 just prior to our departure
on the Thanksgiving Trip of 2006. The lads are my grandsons and certainly
are able bodied seamen.
Follow the crew and Rhapsody (the tour is brief) through their summer travels and outings aboard this beautiful little vessel. I have added some pics from the July 4th weekend at the above link.
Well, alas summer is gone and fall has finally arrived! And boy oh boy were
we ready for a break in the temperature. We've also gotten some sorely needed
rain and everything has returned to a spring like state of green! (READ yes we
have to mow the lawn again this year!!!) With school and work schedules being
very hectic this time of year, up dates may fall behind, but, I hope to get some
new pics soon (perhaps with fall color) and post them in the gallery. Along with
fall sailing will be some much needed upgrades to Rhapsody. I'll list them later
and provide progress reports as well.
Hope your fall sails are pleasant and joyful. Keep checking back for updates.
In addition to the links found on this page, I have added a Links page to which I will be posting the URL's of some of my favorite sites. While I doubt that any of them (sites) are great discoveries to most readers, some might be new to you. I'll try to keep the urls current, but if you find one that doesn't work, please notify me and I'll fix it possible. Also, you might want to visit the First Mate's Page and learn of her areas of interest. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back often.
