We've had an unusually cool and damp spring (where's Al when we need him?), and only 4 boats on are on moorings out of a total of 18 available. This winter I made a number of mods to the old girl - 240 pounds of lead in keel sump. Backstay tensioner Varnished wood wash boards with vent New depth sounder (PiranaMax) New Mainsail and 140 genoa (North Direct) Now all we need is some better weather so I can go sailing.
