5.5 CAN 22 "Nantoria"
10-11-2012
by Kaspar Stubenrauch, 10-11-2012
John Lister reports from Canada: "...Nantoria sailed most of her life from 1967 to 2010 out of Toronto’s Royal Canadian Yacht Club and Queen City Yacht Club. During these years she was in mostly sailed by the Millen Family who called her Grass Hopper. Towards the end of this time Grasshopper was getting tired and in need of significant work. She was bought by John Lister of Midland, Ontario (1.5 hours north of Toronto) on Georgian Bay in 2010. John returned her original name to her, and she was re-launched in 2011 as Nantoria after an extensive rebuild (Lister restores yacht as a hobby). She sails and races happily on Georgian Bay these days..."

John Lister, owner of 5.5 CAN 22 "Nantoria" reports:
I launched "Nantoria" today and she is sitting in the slings for the night. I hope to get her mast up this weekend and put on the new deck hard wear, maybe even get for a sail.

On October 5th we lifted Nantoria/Grasshopper up off the trailer and into a cradle with wheels and was pushed into the garge. We removed the rudder and keel in the same process which went very well. The keelsum looked to be in very good condition although it was obvious that she would have been leaking badly up through the keel boalts. I am now ready to build an extension out front over the 3 metres that stick-out of the garage so that she will fit in undercover and I can put the wood stove on to warm-up the shop. Winter is coming soon....
