 2006 Boat Lane Christmas Parade
Windsong Chosen as the 2006
Lead Committee Boat for the Texas' 45th annual Christmas Boat Parade.

 Windsong is a new boat in the Galveston Bay community.

Windsong was purchased by the salty "Seadog" Captain Bob and his novice sailor wife, Katherine last May in Miami, Florida. 

They fell in love with the romance and style of this 28 year old Formosa boat!  They looked at a lot of opportunities but Windsong called out to both of them.

After they added navigational equipment, they sailed her from Miami to Key West and then on a rum line straight to Galveston over 950 miles. 

This adventure lasted 8 days! They had Buffet playing, saw tons of Dolphin, beautiful evening stars & even launched a successful "message in a bottle".

They have learned historical facts about the Formosa boat making and found out that the hull was constructed in Taiwan and then shipped to China for the finish out.

Seven families were contracted to utilize their skills on design and cabinetry.  Windsong boasts beautiful hand carved doors and a fantastic open design.  


The Captain stands 6'3" and practically walks through the boat without banging his head....this is a good thing!

They look forward to showing the renovations and updating of the interior & exterior by local craftsmen.  Windsong's destiny is to be restored and updated to the elegance she deserves.
