Just another work day on the boat....




For a guy that likes projects, which I am , this is heaven.
I love sailing my cat , but I think I also like, if not as much, working on
and tweeking out my boat.
I just finished our new deck......the last one didn't make the cut. Too hot in the sun (the wood turned a dark black after oiling it and sitting in the sun for awhile)
and the little problem of part of it falling in the ocean while we were sailing last year.



Right now Im working on a couple projects at a time.
The new boom is getting fiberglassed. In the old design we had a wishbone design. This boom wrapped around the mast. It looks like a windsurfer sail. The new one is a box design.




There is a new helper on the property



His name is fitz. He isn't doing much work



but he is fun to have around. He does scare some of the Locals.The trash guys
didn't come for a couple of weeks because they were scared of him. Lol, and all he wants is some scratches

In an ideal world, we would hope to get the boat out and sail around the lakes this year and maybe even
get out to the ocean for a little fishing. But, I'm not holding my breath.

Here is where we hung the hammocks for afternoon breaks from work.
this usually is done with a beer.





seeya all soon
