No longer a "lurker"

Hello, my name is Dave and I had to wait 6 months to pick up my new Flagstaff to actually join. This is a great site and seems to have alot of nice members and information.

Thanks, by the way it is a 8528BHSS, we go for our first outing on May 13. We stepped up from a 21 ft Starcraft hybrid which was a great camper as well.

Your maintenance skills will transfer over quite nicely. One tip - don't expect quite the same quality of workmanship on a trailer as on your sailboat.
