Off to LA for the last time
The Saga 409 build is drawing to a close so I spend Monday thru Friday in LA finishing off last minute stuff/decisions on the boat. She will be loaded onto a truck next week and I will be in the Bay to unload her and hopefully the owner will have a smile on his face. The boat was taken out of the shed to have the bottom sprayed and the graphics look great on the hull. There is a lot to finish off in the bay – small details always seem to take time.
I had a great time staying with the Leths – family friends who have known my dad since before he married my mum… It has been a great project for me getting to see them every month.

Ashley- I am the owner of hull #12 of the Saga 409 – S/V “Quiet Ride”- one of the few to make it out of Pacific Seacraft at the end of 2006. It has been a struggle trying to figure the boat out since they went under within a month of delivering the boat. Any chance you would be willing to share my contact info with the owner of this new boat? I would love to have a few other 409 owners to discuss issues.
Many thanks,
Don
