Yuletide
Cape Dory 26 Hull #7   Owner: Dana Morris

Yuletide is a Cape Dory 26, built and delivered in December of 1985. She is hull number seven. I purchased this full keeled vessel directly from Cape Dory, and actually was able to watch her be built. She was delivered from the boatbuilder in Taunton Mass the week before Christmas, with a big bow and Merry Christmas stenciled on her stern.

She was launched in the spring of 1986. I have owned her ever since.

I have sailed through all kinds of conditions with her, from 28 knots at the top end, to a still 1 knot, she has proven very seaworthy, and a dependable vessel for Buzzards Bay and Vineyard Sound. 

Yuletide moored in Lake Tashmoo, Vineyard Haven
