Perfect air today...blowing from 8 knots all the way to 17 max in the
space of just a few hours. We sailed under main just enjoyed the cool
air.

While poor Sloco, Doug and Jeff made feeble attempts to sound important
we were out there yet again enjoying a great little daysail. Later on
we popped the 110 and got the boat wet. We came back early and set up
the new main while we still had good light. I managed to leave one of
the full battens at home, but that's fine....The genoa will be here in
a few days and I'd rather fly the whole set for the first sail. A few
folks at the club came over and went gaga over the dark sail. It's
quite exotic. My buddy with the Tartan 37 remarked, "Is this Darth
Vader's boat?" Didn't someone once come up to Jeff and ask if his boat
belonged to Jabba the Hut???
Sloco is going to be mighty upset when he see the hoist on this
sail...actually higher than my current main or ANY of the other 35s5's
I posted. I'm sure he'll claim my boom is higher or whatever. In any
case it's a perfect fit and I can't wait for the genoa to get here. I
set up a lighter main halyard and have a lighter jib sheet ready as
well. I checked out our new sheets for the chute and set up the Lewmar
Series 60 blocks for them. This should be a fun week and weekend coming
up!

G'night kids....Suzanne is looking fantastic in red lace.

Shows the intelligence of the bunch of white trash that tie up at that
low rent marina you hang out at.

Let's see, Sloco.....if your Express 30 was at my club......it would be
the cheapest boat and the saddest sailboat here. In fact the only boat
even close to the value of your boat here would be a J29, which is
STILL worth more than your boat!

Bwahahahahhahaha!
