Hi:
Julie and I attended both the Cleveland and the Toronto boat shows
this past week. There was no Potter display at Cleveland, but at
Toronto there was both a 15 and a 19 on display. The were rigged and
very popular, although there was no salesperson around while we were
there. I was surprised that both boats were HMS hulls. Does HMS
build Potters in Canada? Our Potter 15 is an H.M.S. I thought all
new boats were being built by International. I at first thought that
the 15 must be an old boat, but it was all white, including cabin
upholstery, and immaculate. It could never have been used. There
must be prosperity in Canada because the Toronto show was spectacular-
-the best we've seen. We spent five hours there and saw just a
fraction of it.
