Reporting Aboard

Greetings,
Thank you for accepting my request to join the forum. First, a little about me and S/V Lady Anne.
I'm a former U.S. naval officer and OEF vet, currently working in industrial sales in Knoxville, TN. My lovely wife Megan, our young son Edmund, trusty terrier "Mick" ,worthless cat "Mae", two guppies and I reside in Harriman's historic Cornstalk Heights District.
S/V Lady Anne is a '76 Chrysler C 22 "Sandpiper" swing keel I obtained from a gentleman recently moved here from Colorado. When I got her, she was in dire need of major repairs. I and my father-in-law dropped the swing keel, replaced the pin and brackets, faired the keel, repainted the hull and topsides, replaced all running rigging, re-powered with a new Tohatsu 6 SP, and installed Lowrance plotter w/sonar.
She's currently docked at Euchee Marina and Resort on fabulous Watts Bar Lake, TN...where one can (if up to the task) make for the Big Muddy and go all the way to the Gulf.
Will post some photos (as soon as I figure out how to do so!).
Cheers
