    Hi Karlis, thanks for the reply. I expect I'll be out on the coast quite a bit in the next few months, I'll have to make better plans for future trips! Do you have any idea how I could get in touch with the owner of the Gazelle? Talk to you soon!

    I'm in Vancouver at the moment but my boat is up in French Creek (30 minutes drive north of Nanaimo), where you'll find 3 junk rigs. Rolf Zaar (not JRA) has a junk rigged Colvin Gazelle in False Creek at the Heather Marina, not sure if he's around at the moment. Ryan Corvus's (JRA) gorgeous junk sloop Shine is in Mosquito Creek in North Van. Not a lot of junks in Vancouver though, but there are many out in the islands (Bowen, Gabriola, Saturna, Cortes, etc).

    I'm heading out to Vancouver, BC next week (for the boat show) and was wondering whether any members will be in the area with their junk-rigged boats? I'd love to come by and have a short visit if you're there! Thanks. (I'd also really like to see a Colvin Gazelle if anyone knows of one in the area!) Thanks!
