Since the last time I gave you information, I have
cruised to Alaska and back, definitely a trip! The
Offshore 41 (Tiger Lily is a yawl)
proves again and again to be a remarkable
sailing vessel, well worth any issues that
I've been faced with. Since I've bought
her I've reconditioned the decks and masts
and am halfway through a remodel of the
interior. Incidentally, I feel largely
responsible for the article
in Practical Sailor a couple of years ago. I met the
author at a boat show and suggested the article to
him. We subsequently met on my
boat, and I provided the literature
(layouts, original sales brochures etc.)
that was used in the article. Though I
noticed another owner getting ready for a
blister job, Tigerlily, a '78 Offshore, has never yet
shown a sign of a blister. Lastly,
I am probably the only person who is not a
big fan of the circular settee. While it
is great for gatherings, it is lousy for
sitting with your feet up for a good
read (no 'square' back to lean against).
Anyway, thought I'd get back in touch. 10 years with
Tigerlily and still loving it.

My husband and I are very excited
about our upcoming cruise to the baja area this September (2007).
We've made updates such as taking off the teak decks and adding a
wind generator and solar panels. We're very interested in hearing
from anyone who has information to share about their sailing
experiences in Mexico. We'll be uploading pictures soon.

3/08 This is project boat that will take time to restore to her full
glory. When I'm done, I plan to circumnavigate. I have some ideas,
like converting the ketch to a sloop with a freestanding carbon
fibre mast, installing electric pods instead of rebuilding the
motor.... and others.... but any comments gladly welcomed at
