New Sol Cat 18

Sol Cat 18 and McKean Smith

McKean Smith has joined the Perdido Key Sailing Club with his new Sol Cat 18. McKean was actually the second sailboat to come into the new Perdido Key Sailing Club and he has taken her out the last few weekends with all of us in the club. McKean joined us with practically no hesitance at all. In fact, he bought his Sol Cat the day after sailing with Carlos and Noah around the islands along Old River (ask him about his maiden voyage). McKean brings with him years of sailing experience and we are glad to welcome into the club.
