Just a few photos from my trip to bring Overproof back to Shag Bay from
Prospect where I was doing some diving for my friend who owns the marina
there. I believe someone asked about "lee shores"... I put in a photo to
display what the coastline looks like. Nice shots of the entry into Shag Bay
and the Gull Rocks. A nice shot of my "dinghy".. an 18 foot single hand
Dory. I saw what I believe to be a competitor in the Marblehead Race...
taking some R&R at the hook in Prospect. I even included one for MC of my
display on the log.... ;-D

Nice pics. Good on you for using real, hank-on sails.

Good Photoshop job on the speedometer, too.

I hacked into Moroon's computer and found the
speedometer shot before he edited it. Check it
out he

Hank ons are the mark of a Pro...... or someone too poor to afford R/F....
;-D

After years of hank ons and lack of self tailers... I'm getting to a point
of considering running my current forestay to the tip of the bowsprit and
adding a removable inner stay. I thought about R/F on the forestay and hank
on self tending on the inner. I have just a tiny bit of weather helm and I
think I could make the changes without increasing it too much. I'm also
considering going to larger size self tailing winches....

| Good Photoshop job on the speedometer, too.

No alterations Cappy..... I was on a broad reach. The WX channel stated 10
to 15 kts. The sea state sort of confirms it. I was trying to get the
display when it showed 8.2 kts.... damn that delay on the digital camera. I
was averaging about the speed shown for most of the sail. I didn't get much
past 5.5 knots on the reach out of Prospect. I was flying my 150 and full
main... with the prop locked and towing a 500 lb Dory.

Nice! very nice pics. Boy that water looks clean, not like the brown/green
around here.

What is the 'sea' 9.9 on the log?

Pah!! I'm astonished that anybody would be brave enough to post such a
poor performance on the Internet.

I could drop my anchor in the Alderny race and record higher figures on my
log!

Maybe I will have to take a camera next time I go sailing.



Regards
