I did enjoy (and survive) our extended ocean cruise.

(Actually, New Year's eve.) Although I had to wear a light jacket part of
the time, the weather was very nice for cruising Saturday, with some 50 or
so sailboats out in Galveston bay. Nice steady winds throughout the
afternoon. After some recent maintenance, all the electronics seem to be
performing well. (The transducer for the chart reader had been having
problems.) Also had a new reefing system installed, with lines led aft.
Even on a small boat like the M, I find the autopilot a significant help
for single-handed sailing. - Useful when preparing lunch, adjusting the
rigging, or for sitting on the deck watching the bow cut through the
water. Sort of like magic.

In any event, I'm looking forward to the 2006 sailing season.

So, does this mean you survived your extended ocean cruise on your MacrapM?
