Tom & Jill,
What a great opportunity for others to gather. This would be the perfect time for anyone to get onboard a Helmsman and see the incredible build quality.

No kidding we can vouch for the quality build and seaworthiness after our 2 year 14000 mile voyage Looping Platinum.

Scott Helker Supported us throughout our voyage never leaving us behind when needed. Buying a boat is one thing but customer support is the icing on the cake.

Tom if we make into town during the event We will head your way. Thank you for the invite.

Thanks, Tom!
I will be attending, and know of at least one other east coaster (owns a 43) who will also be attending. Will be great to meet the folks who have been and will be on the same journey with us, and to learn from each other.
