All that remains to do is bend on the sails...
We'll have that done by noon.

See ya!

ha, always a good feeling, being back afloat. Have fun!
I remember helping the captain Pettit bend on the sails of schooner,

more than a few hours. Lots of hoops and tarred twine to wrap and tie.
I sort of enjoyed it now that I think back.
