Mariner #272 SIMPATICO has been owned for a very long time by Russ Schuss of Lake Nockamixon, Pennsylvania. SIMPATICO has been featured several times in the "Picture of the Week" column on my website over the years, and she has participated in several rendezvous here in Connecticut. Recently, Russ came to the decision he couldn't comfortably sail #272 anymore, and he sold his boat to a gentleman named Paul Bowers in Mobile Bay, Alabama. Paul is an enthusiastic owner and has begun a new website to document the adventures of #272 - renamed CRICKET - in southern waters. Check it out.
