At last, temps in the 60s, wind, real wind out of the north. ?So,
tommorow, I sail my 28' sloop 36 miles west to get her bottom painted
in prep for sailing southward. ?Everybody else is in school or working
so I am taking the day off and going alone. ?I got an EPIRB, Hand held
VHF, VHF, phone, etc.
See y'all tomorrow night.

Stay safe... wear your lifejacket!

Single handing is always a risk, don't forget your tether even if it
doesn't look bouncy starting out...
I am envious, I gotta work tomorrow, while your're having fun. Bah
Humbug!
Mike... !

If you have a tether, then I guess you don't need a lifejacket.

Did not go. *Got to the coast and tried to start the engine, nothing,
even with compression relieved, she would barely turn over. *Brought
both batteries back to town, had em checked, both refused to charge.
Replaced em, may try again tommorow if the tides are right.
BTW, I am a safety fanatic. If someone is on my boat, they are wearing
a life jacket unless they are below. *I always wear a tether when
alone or at night. *Also have an EPIRB w GPS on my auto-inflate jacket
and a strobe.

You certainly seem to have your problems with boats, caves, campertops,
et cetera.

Don't take up golf...you'd be hit by lightning or eaten by a gator.

Maybe it is because I actually do stuff Harry. *I do agree though, I
am convinced that if I ever golfed I'd get hit by lightning.

I "do stuff," too, Froggy. I just don't seem to have all the problems
you do with your "stuff."

Well, why do anything if nothing unusual happens? Many trips are so
ho-hum I forget them. Don't you like to solve problems? If things
always went well all the time I'd be bored to death.
