Funny how crossing paths in this world work.
I was in Venice until Wednesday last.
I passed through that jetty on Monday in the morning and evening on a small
fishing boat.
Did not see Headroom. It would have been interesting if we could have met.

Happy sailing.

Subject: Stus-List C&C'ers and The List
Listers,

Yesterday, while my wife and I were driving through Venice, Florida, I saw
through the corner of my eye a couple sitting on their C&C 37+ at a dock
near the gulf jetty. So, as you can imagine, we just had to walk over to
say hello.

It was a 1989 C&C 37+ named “Headroom” owned by Tom and his wife Brady —
and yes, Patriots fans, he’s “Tom" and she’s “Brady”, though they claim
they’ve been married long before the quarterback was even born.

They have owned the 37+ for close to 20 years, and before that, owned a C&C
32. I did not inquire about the genesis of the “Headroom” name, but I
imagine it either had something to do with the toilet or possibly that Tom,
in his younger years, May have looked like M-M-Ma-M-Max.

We chatted for a bit and I was surprised to learn that they had no idea
about Stu’s site or the List, which I maintain is one of the most valuable
parts of owning a C&C these days. As a fellow C&C 37+ owner, he seemed
especially interested in “Obi-Wan” Ken Heaton’s site/database and Josh
Muckley’s contributions.

With that in mind, we owe it to ourselves and other C&C owners to “talk-up”
this service whenever we see another C&C owner on the water. Let’s do what
we can to expand this group.

All the best,

Edd
