This blog details the life of the boat know as "Santeria". Santeria is an Able Poitin 24, or Evelyn 24, Built by Able Shipwrights in 1975, sold to market in 1976.
This boat was purchased in July 2010 as a step up from my existing sailboat, a Sirus 21. Coming from a Laser 2 background, I was looking for something more lively and a few feet longer.

Spring 2011...3 day before launch...Knot meter and Wind Instrumentation
Purchased a Domino System Wind, Speed, and Depth instrument. This instrument was designed & built by a Port Credit On company. Lucky for me, there was a person that is local and available to install and support the unit. Two visits to the boat and he had the speed transducer, wind vane and instrumentation installed. 300$ later and a bottle of scotch, I had speed and wind working.
