Hey,, when are you splashing? I know your way way way ahead of me! I
haven't done jack because of the weather.


I could go in tomorrow if necessary except for swapping the mast head light
as long as I stick to my original plan to haul and paint later. I have a 2
May launch reservation but I'm thinking of putting it off till late May to
have plenty of time to install the Cape Horn, save some money by painting
myself, and doing some other optional projects in the comfort of the yard.
We're planning some long trips so getting the boat in good shape seems to
make more sense at this point than squeezing in every possible sailing day.

I wish I'd taken the shrink wrap off so the boat was getting pressure washed
by all this rain. It's also painful to watch it whipping in the wind and
straining the lifeline stanchions.
