Won't see it till the 1st of June, fine with that. The dealer is doing 2 preps a day, so we are in line.  After owning a Winnebago Era, 24', 4x4, feeling much more at ease with a much smaller unit.  
O happy day.  ( not the same kind of happy day as when we sold the MBZ..happier now. )

    Thanks B0atguy...yeah, and I know it will be a LOT less upkeep than that 24' Folkboat I was looking at.

    Always wanted a Folkboat..of course they made some fiberglass ones for a few years, but  I am a masochist..wanted a wood one. O. well. We can take our 320 up to Port Townsend, Wa. in Sept. for the annual Wooden Boat Show..assuming it is on...this year. :s

    I used to work on Folkboats in SanFrancisco, and you are better off with the Tab, you will have more room than the Folkboat’s small cabin.

    Oh lordy, masochist is right. But I'm glad that some people are willing. 
    FWIW the 2020 festival has been cancelled. 😥

    Eugene, Or.  You know, where a certain sports team gets stuff from a Running shoe owner..Hey, are are you Palouse? Would like to make it up there. Rueben Mays was our neighbor down here until he moved back to Pullman.  We haven't been there either.

    Welcome to the T@B club! I'm in Oregon too. I moved from Bend to Canby last summer and family in Springfield. Let's hope Oregon State Parks open soon; I was supposed to be at Cape Lookout this week, but, with all the rain, maybe staying home was just as well. Do you have an Amazon Prime account yet?

    Welcome! You'll have a blast! And as a former power boater (52' Nova) believe me, this is a welcome relief! Though I do miss hauling in crab pots for dinner in San Juans!

    Hello Oregonian Tabber trimtab!

    Did you get it?!??!? Good timing for this great PNW weather kickin' in.

    We have 3 more months of waiting but busy with getting house and yard ready to wave bye to our Tab's tailights for weeks at a time.

    Hello PNW T@bber 2Cougs and Hubby's fellow Coug!

    We'd be so happy to park our T@bbie next to yours up north. I'm sure Dave will pack all his Coug wear for that trip! Looking forward to our T@b life when it finally gets started in the fall. There'll be a lot more game-attending trips too! Oh boy, so much hard-to-contain excitement!!!
