There's a crab crusher in our marina that has a
club-footed staysail. The
staysail resides in a boom bag near the tack when not in
use. The owner
told me once that if he doesn't use his staysail
regularly, tiny birds build
nests in the damn bag. When he raises that sail after a
hiatus, nest
material and eggs go flying everywhere.


I hoisted my main and saw a mouse nest, complete with a few
baby mice fly off into the water.

I removed my hat, said a short prayer and went sailing.

No breakfast?
