Plenty of time for sailing to come.<br /><br />steveStevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17060896232365651376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5137810012036013226.post-76047870757428522382012-03-18T19:50:06.510-04:002012-03-18T19:50:06.510-04:00Went out for the first pleasure sail of the year t...Went out for the first pleasure sail of the year today - my wife came along to keep me company and get out of the house. My freshly painted, varnished and named dink got her bottom wet for the first time in my ownership, and we towed her behind just for grins and to see how it went. <br /><br />Nice day today - fog came rolling in as soon as we left the dock and sailed up into Hills Bay, but by the time we got up into Fishing Bay, the sun broke through and we had a very pleasant, albeit too short, sail. Just up into Fishing Bay and then turn around and head back to the slip - a quick 2-hour jaunt. But much welcomed, at least for me!Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950317902951463280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5137810012036013226.post-33838462107809513912012-03-18T18:02:26.421-04:002012-03-18T18:02:26.421-04:00Baydog, JimB,

Cockpit wood (seat slats and coaming), mast, boomkin & bowsprit all need to be taken back to wood and re-varnished. Once set up, it goes along just fine, it's just a matter of working it in our schedules.<br /><br />So, I am sailing vicariously through you.
