Well...Alien's will be lifted clear if the LIS at 2:00 and I'll be there to
strip her sails and winterize her diesel. It's a sad day. But also a happy day!
Because I'll finish off the wood work in her interior (not much) and set about
refinishing the pedestal. I'll also be replacing the main sheet and a bunch of
other fun projects!

The only thing better than sailing a boat is working on one! Then tomorrow I'll
be flying around on a J24! Should be a great weekend. Sunday may get close to
70!

Well Booby, I was out in the Manhasset Fall series last weekend and it was
wild and wet on a BIG boat. If you go out on that J-24, be ready for a
possibly wild ride.

fun for sure, but wet and wild.

We went out last week and got soaked. Suzanne has a full one piece suit that
cost 500 bucks from Henry Lloyd, but my sailing jacket and pants from West
Marine were useless after the first swells broke over the J's bow. Great
sail...and great excuse to buy my own fancy suit at the AC boat show!
Tomorrow looks good, but I have to figure out if I should sail the J again on
Sunday or sail in NY harbor aboard a Endeavor 32.

You people up north are really lucky to have all that time to work on
all those fun projects. We here in south Florida only have time to sail
during the "winter"
