3D printing small plastic hardware parts for small boats is getting easier and easier. Today we tested a 3d printed stopper ball using just PLA plastic and the results were surprising. We're confident this would outlast the useful life of the line. These small stopper balls are most often used for marking control lines like differentiating between a downhaul and and reef line for example. We're making these available in 4 colors on our website now. https://bandbyachtdesigns.com/stopperball

Sept. 2024: Video from owner Ken, who writes, "We are on a little cruise in the San Juan Islands. A friend just sent us this photo and video of Rosie passing by her waterfront home. We were quite a way off sure so she must of had a long lens. Mount Baker in the background. I have said this many times on the forum, but need to say it again. This is a wonderful design. We enjoy every trip on her!" More at: https://bandbyachtdesigns.com/OB26

Video credit to Trey Williams (Marissa #55). Trey is a professional builder and a Seakeeper Ride installer and he sent us a video of his Marissa he was testing out with the Seakeeper Ride tabs installed. From Trey, "I was able to get some short running footage showing how well the Marissa hull works in small chop. The Marissa 18 is the best riding 18 footer I've ever been on and now with the seakeeper ride it makes it even better than before. Amazing hull design paired with technology is very impressive. Speed was about 26-27 mph."

On May 21, 2023, I will turn 80. I plan to do a celebratory cruise in my sailboat “Carlita” around the whole of the Pamlico Sound. A distance of 500 nautical miles. It has been just over 10 years since I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s. I never expected to make it to 80, let alone still have the desire or feel fit enough to attempt this cruise. I believe that Rock Steady Boxing has played a big part in that. I thought it would be good to try to give something back. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause which means so much to me and follow my progress at www.sailingforparkinsons.org to donate to this great cause please visit https://www.gofundme.com/f/sailing-for-parkinsons
