Harry, Karen and
the rest of your Team: When we unloaded
the 4 new Scots in Dallas last Monday it was
I purchased FS 1653 in June 1999, rechristening her "Dragonfly"...My wife and I have found her to be a most wonderful boat. I have been able to keep up with a J24 crossing Lake Champlain. We have slept on Dragonfly, we have taken her to islands where we camped for the night and we daysailed her with 4 adults and 3 kids. The cockpit is roomier than our (previous boat) Pearson 30. We feel we have not stepped down from our Pearson 30, just simplified things alot. -Joe VLcek, I have owned Scots for 23 years (#269, #2564,a dn #4291). I have cruised but now I mostly race. I purchased a Scot because it looks good, it's fast, comfortable and I can walk around in it. Its also the best fleet for racing and fun at Corinthian Sailing Club in Dallas. -Edwin M. Lockey,
Jr. I have owned a Flying Scot for 10 years and I purchased it because of the simplicity, cockpit, Class Organization and because of "Sandy Douglass." I would recommend the Flying Scot to others for the above reasons plus the low maintenance and good resale. Dick Besse, The reasons we like the boat are because it is great for family, has stability, and quality workmanship...We now have the stern ladder and swim off the boat whenever possible. We love that ladder. Thomas M. Threlkeld, Reasons I like the
boat: All the usual ones, fun, fast, forgiving, true one-design, affordable..
but the main reason is the people who sail them..I've made lifelong friends... We have owned a Scot
for 10 years. Before that we had a Laser 2 that we were not built for.
We had seen a Scot on Saratoga Lake and a friend of ours took us out in
it. We were immediately hooked! No black and blue marks! Since buying
a Scot and joining the (Flying Scot Sailing Association) we feel like
we have an extended family. We go all over the country to regattas and
renew friendships with other FS sailors. Ann Seidman I became a confirmed Scotter 29 years ago when my neighbors on Candlewood Lake took me for a sail. The boat was easy to sail, the Class Association was strong, and it's a great day sailor and racer. David Jacobsen
