Who will be in the water first?
 
What will that cost?

Wouldn't it be more exciting to sail it down.

Waiting to see if we'll be shipping Chanteuse to Fort Myers, Fl in June.

What does the Sonata look like? I couldn't find any picture of it.

Crewing on a Sonata, hoping to win races in the club's Easter Series - a 2nd
and a very marginal 3rd (by 3.8 seconds!) so far.

I could have been in yesterday, but couldn't
find any crew! It takes three people to push
the trailer to the hoist. Towing it over wasn't
an option because there are rows of masts in the
way and it's a very tight fit followed by a ramp.

The weather was perfect 15-20 knots and 60 degree.
I had everything rigged and ready, registration
current, sails, lifejackets, and safety gear loaded
--but no crew. I wish I was back in San Francisco
--I never had trouble finding crew there.

The water is very cold 42 degrees. I wonder how
long an average person would last in in the water.
30 to 40 minutes?

I got some sanding and fairing done on the big boat
in the morning--good weather for that too. The wind
blew the dust away nicely.

Could have been in , Yesterday, as I was waxing the hull, they came by with
the crane and asked if I was ready. I said no, only finished waxing at 1400.
Got to go to Boston today, maybe when I return she'll be in

Points to you John. Best reply so far.

I turned down two deliveries to focus on working
on my big boat. I really wanted to do both of
them but decided to set a serious goal of getting
the big one in the water by Memorial Day. So it
will be a boring spring for me.

Have fun and take lots of pictures.

Ft. Lauderdale-Bermuda-Azores-Villamoura, Portugal. Possibly. Will get a
better idea as to the probability next Tuesday.

Dumbass, you are referring to Fermi 2. When I grew up it was the 50's and
50's and the plant then was Fermi 1....they have since fixed the problem.
Get with the program. It did kill fish when they first built it.


How do I know how old you are? You mentioned a nuclear power plant,
and the one that is now there doesn't kill any fish.

So how was it, heating your teepee with wood and dried horse dung?




Screw the rules! They're more like guidelines, anyways.

Katy, you need to listen to Horass. He's got valuable
information to share about dried horse dung.

Somewhere between 2k-3k...

Yes, but there's a large time constraint seeing as how Mr Sails will be
living aboard while I sell the house up here....need it down there
pronto....

I repeatedly talk about my grown-up ids and make references about my
grandchildren...isn't rocket science to figure it out. I will be 52
soon....as will someone else of prominence on the ng, but I won't mention
any names....
