Nutsy,

You better check your shoes. You're not stomping anyone. You must be
stomping in Dog ****.

Ol Thom
P/S It has been over 100 degrees F in Texas. Night sailing in that kind
of weather is damn good "Seamanship" Much more enjoyable than watch TV
but a "Lard Ass" wouldn't really understand that.


You got it Ol Thom...Sailing after the blazing sun sets is the way to
go here. We
had very light winds and 95 degrees until after sunset. We usually
switch to night sailing around July 4th.

The seabreeze after dark was perfect, the moon was bright, the sky was
crystal clear, saw a few shooting stars. Got to stress test the new
rudder somewhat. Had the new main on, but still using the snipe jib
(can't find where I stashed that harkin roller furler base) Hope to
have everything ship shape tonight.
