Happy to see you sailing again! What a great day you had! I wish you a super season! 😎👍

Merci Michel ... I hope you have a great sailing season too! I'm looking forward to seeing more Tanzer 16 "Papou" sailing videos!

Excellent!

Thanks ... yes that was a great day to be on the water! Today, however, not so much ... thick forest fire smoke.

Thank you for the video. We had your sister Melonseed, # 469, out on May 25th on the lower Niagara River. th-cam.com/video/fRSvRKm60Rc/w-d-xo.html
Forgive the amateur camera work. We have been out 6 times so far. Lake Erie at Buffalo three times, Dunkirk once, Lake Chautauqua once, and Niagara River once. Hold Fast!

Thanks for watching. We certainly had some excellent weather in late May. The Melonseed skiff is perfect for exploring inland waterways on a glorious spring day!

Enjoyed your video. Curious where you got your cushions (both seat and J back cushion) seen in the smooth tack at the 3:20 mark. Those would be a welcome addition to my Melonseed.

Glad you liked the video! Roger Crawford supplied the seat bottom cushions (2) with the boat when I bought it back in 2014 so check with him. He also arranged to supply that back cushion for me but the supplier is www.ccushions.com Tel [phone]. The cushion is called "Melonseed J-Back" and three years ago the price was $49.95 USD plus shipping. I actually started out with two back cushions but managed to lose one a few years ago while tacking!
