Rick Fleischman and the gang August 2000 The following photos are from a combined trip we did with Rick Fleischman on S/V BOB in August 2000. There were ten people involved. Six were on Rick's boat and four on Skookumchuck. When you are the "other" boat, a lot of photographs seem to come your way. Unless otherwise noted, Rick's wife, Jen, took the photographs. I'll be forever grateful because, when you are out cruising, it's not easy to get a photograph of your own boat. |

This sailing series is put together from a wide variety of shots. It shows Skookumchuck doing what it likes to do best. |

The top photo was taken in Fredrick Sound. The Humpbacks were plentiful! |

The Hydro Halo is an inflatable tube that can be attached to any skiff. It's an
incredible addition to any small boat for safety's sake but especially nice since
it keeps the skiff from bumping into the boat. This is one of the first to be sold
to the public and has given us a chance to be involved with it's continued development. |

Mike and Lora joined us for a day (2nd and 3rd from the left). It seems that everyone from both boats came and went pretty much as they wished. Couldn't have asked for a nicer group of folks. |

Tom Macklin took this photo from my skiff the day Skookumchuck first got its sails (only a few months before this trip). Not only was it a pleasure to finally get to sail with another boat but it was a grand experience having the two boats together with the people involved. Rick and I both said we'd do it again in a minute! And finally, I want to thank Rick's wife Jen, again, for sharing her photographs because this view of our trip would have been impossible otherwise. |
