The purchase process was long and drawn out due mostly to the weather, but my wife and I just took ownership of Duchess on Sunday!

She is a 1985 IP 27 and was formally named Panther when owned by Frank D. (2 owners ago). My hat comes off to Frank for all of the work he did on the boat, and the legacy of detailed photographs he left on this forum. Not only can I see when he did something, but I can see exactly HOW he did it ;)

Thanks also to Hayden for his advice on these boats and their construction!

Duchess will be spending the summer at the Jersey Shore on Long Beach Island. Now, back to the maintenance!

BIG CONGRATS on buying a great boat. We sailed the IP 27 from 1991 to 2001 and loved it. That is a great sailing boat. I know Frank took great care of her, you have a solid boat. Thank you for the update, I am very happy for you. I have been a bit offline due to traveling and moving from the boat to our home, so I apologize for the delayed reply. Please share all you can with photos and your summer sailing adventures.
