Canoe-a-polo!

Well,

I have finally got my boat out of Hansen rigging, and it looks sweeet! I can't wait to try out the new lines... and I almost had a chance... but of course the new seat wasn't done. Last weekend was the Richmond Yacht Club's Tottaly Dinghy, and cause my boat was out of service, I used the fleet charter boat. Unfortunetly i was the only ic on the line. But i did managae to get some good practice in. the wind was light, so i experiemented with diffrent ways to do tacks and jibes. most of the time i ended up in some odd position, and almost capsizing. i also worked on the tried and true methods, and my tack success rate went up. i felt good. this weekend im going up to the boat builing shop and am going to try to finish the seat. i cant wait to sail my own boat. i miss the old dog.

Work, work, and more work.

Well, I have been working really hard to try to get the Dog back out on the water. The boat it self is at Hansens rigging, getting all the lines redone. Im also building a new seat to replace the broken one. And in between I have been doing some work to get some spare change... repairing 1000 sq.ft of spinnaker is no fun... but worth it!
