hung out to dry


Mizzen and jib hung up to dry in the garage yesterday, main will be put up there today.  While in sail cleaning mode I decided to skip sailing this weekend and ordered the sodium hypochlorite solution to do the mildew work this weekend.  Not soaking the entire sails in the solution, just spot cleaning with a brush.  It's really just a few spots on the lower panels of the main and the jib.  Might as well get all the sail work done at once.
