Mike and Margaret: After renaming their new tug Lady Margaret, the Smiths repainted her bulwarks green. They have cruised her extensively in British Columbia.
Bruce and Margrit: Owned a Sundowner 32 and a Willard 30 before they bought Equinox. Just after Christmas of 2000 Bruce and Margrit took possession of Equinox and cruised her to her new home in La Conner, WA. As Bruce says "All of our cruising was essentially local — mostly throughout the SJ islands (many times to Fisherman's Bay, Friday Harbor, Roche Harbor, and Rosario), as far north as Bellingham and Semiahmoo, and south to Gig Harbor for the rendezvous there…and of course Seattle, Eagle Harbor and Poulsbo." After selling Equinox Bruce and Margrit purchased a Nordhaven 46.
