This page will contain photos of Clarity, the refitting, and anything else pertaining to the boat, the Everglades Challenge, or to us, that doesn’t get posted on the main page, or that we think needs to be archived here as well! Be aware that they aren’t likely to be in any particular order. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if I duplicate post a pic or two!
Clarity as Santas' Sleigh 2009

A good use for vertical blinds at last!
Talk about way too big a hole... tons of drag here!
Sanded and preppedBottom of very wide trunk, with plug visibleA power plane easily removed the old sealants and leveled the opening
- Clarity close reaching on Lake Tarpon
Another view of the modified tackTools of the tradeClose up of the modified sail head and bolt rope stitchingA view to a clew... my apologies to Ian Fleming!

Hey Mike, thanks for dropping by MVP. Much appreciated! (:
You make boats?
This looks like pretty cool stuff.
I have never tried water-sports,
but I think I should take a break
and go experience the thrill.
Mihir,
We didn’t build the boat… it was actually built 40 years ago! We did, however, extensively modify it for our intended uses.
Nice poetry on your site… I’ll be reading more of it when I have a few extra moments.
Mike
Sure.
Best regards.
Would love to talk over some of the changes you made to your boat. I am most likely buying mine tomorrow.
