November 1, 2016. Rick Oleson checked in with a short note (edited), and your webmaster just happened to be up in the Harpswell area of Maine on non Dolphin related matters, stopped by Paul's Marina, had a short visit with Playful Dolphin, and got the following picture.
Hello Ron
I will not be at my place in Brunswick this week but feel free to drop by Paul's Marina to see our 24' Yankee Dolphin - "Playful Dolphin". It is located on back of boat storage area on North side of lot - it's hull color is green. We are planning to fix/replace front hatch that blew off before winter. I have removed all the interior cabin cushions for storage over the winter. It does need some deck cleaning and the woodwork is in need of oiling or a full varnish job. Otherwise the boat is in good shape - we sailed it all summer on Casco Bay and it sails great. The outboard (9.8 HP 2-stroke Nissan) that comes with the boat I expect should have been taken off boat and delivered to Bamforth's Marine for cleaning and winterizing. This motor has been very reliable and always starts. Sails include a full main, 135% genoa and spinnaker.
Let me know if you should have any questions.
Rick Oleson
November 2, 2016 - Rick's Postscript
Actually, shrink wrapping was not to be done until motor was removed and taken to Bamforths Marine for winterizing - which will be done. Also was trying to have front hatch repaired before winter and shrink wrapping. Will provide some internal pics and details later next week.
Thank you again.
