Letter to the Circle – Mr. Michael Jacobs – December 24th, 1977

Gentlemen:

Enclosed find my subscription for 1978.

Please note that “Kind Wind” has reverted to former name “Carapace”, as she was called by mr. Bullerjahn. this probably establishes some sort of record as she has had two names twice, as her original name was Kind Wind!

Also, my phone number is 802-899-3442. I would like to hear from other owners in the US as well as abroad.

Carapace cruised Lake Champlain all last summer as a shakedown cruise after extensive overhaul and refit. I am planning a cruise to Bahamas, West Indies and then trans- Atlantic to Spain and the mediterranean, starting next summer.

Sincerely,
Michael C. Jacobs Lt. Col. USAF (Ret) Box 66 Browns Trace

P.S. Carapace flies the burgee of the RAF yacht Club, Hamble England, of which i have been a member for over 10 years.
