I listened to a little of this game on the radio while driving back from
the boat. The announcers kept wanting to talk about some stupid primary
election instead. It sounded like things were going well

When I go home there was still abou 1:30 left and I was sure State was
going to fall apart.

The only thing better would be if I'd finished up with the fuel system
instead of just getting some of the major components installed. Lots of
fiddlin' details... but I know what I'm going to talk about tomorrow at
work!

I didn't see it, but heard the score on the radio, thought about you when I
heard it. Today my escort was a grad from Duke, boy did we get into it.

I haven't even seen my boat for 2 months, been busy working.

Duke has slid in the rankings, but they're still a lock for the NCAA. It's
almost as if games like this don't matter for them... as long as it doesn't
happen to often!

Meanwhile, Coach Sendek has job security for a few more years

You remember what it looks like, right? We just got more dadgum snow... I have
been working on the heating system, waiting for a welder, and a hole for the
exhaust cut in the cabin top But I have confidence it will all come
together.

The ex Dukey said they're #3 now. (he used to play soccer for them). As
long as they get to 'the big dance' it will be fine.

Yeah, I've got a 12 x 17'' picture of her over my desk. It's in the 40s this
week and no snow, feels great. Thinking about a new genny for this season.

Scott,

I'd like to suggest a "KAPPA CUT" by Hild
I've had one on my Furler for over 5 yrs and its like new. It is
Regulator and is just about Bullet Proof. It's rated 10 to 40 wind
strenght. It isn't the grestest light air sail but I brought a 170
drifter that I can set free flying and the combination covers my
cruising needs


When I set the 150 genny out with the spinnaker pole and the Drifter out
the opposite side with the whisker pole and the Lazy sheets thru a
cunningham hook at the foot of the mast as downhauls I can get some
amassing speed downwind. Especially when cracked off to the wind with
the Genny to wind ward.

Had a good visit with Schooner Trash this week-end. I'm looking forward
to seeing his new boat with the furler and the staysail up front. I
think he said he was going with a 120 furler and staysail

I have never been that great trimming a cutter rig but I hope to learn
something on his boat.

My sails may be a little small for his boat but we can try a lot of
combination between the two boat

Was a great visit and I was introduced to oyster submarines! My version of
taking the new boat up to Thom is learning from him on running loose foot
mains. Between the two of us we should get sorted out nicely.

I looked at a Kappa cut when I was looking for a new main. Even talked to the
guys at the Annapolis Show. Main thing I didn't like was their pricing. Your
really buying a sail mail order but they want local big loft full service
prices. They don't measure, they don't go sailing, they can't come out if
there is a problem or it doesn't fit.
S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster"
"No shirt, no skirt, full service"

I'll check it out. Bear in mind, cost , unfortunately will be a big
determining factor, I still have one kid and one wife in college.
