I did enjoy (and survive) our extended ocean cruise.

Although I had to wear a light jacket part of the time, the weather was very nice for cruising Saturday, with some 50 or so sailboats out in Galveston bay. Nice steady winds throughout the afternoon. After some recent maintenance, all the electronics seem to be performing well. (The transducer for the chart reader had been having problems.) Also had a new reefing system installed, with lines led aft. Even on a small boat like the M, I find the autopilot a significant help for single-handed sailing. - Useful when preparing lunch, adjusting the rigging, or for sitting on the deck watching the bow cut through the water. Sort of like magic. In any event, I'm looking forward to the 2006 sailing season. Jim So, does this mean you survived your extended ocean cruise on your MacrapM? |
