It's a SAILBOAT!

Yesterday we once again visited "Enee Marie" to see that her mast had in fact been stepped by the yard. I adjusted the tension a little on the shrouds but will tune more finely later. We put the boom and sails on as well. NOW it looks like a sailboat again and the reality of the trip just increased 200%!

Sue will be present on Friday for the launch. Still an unknown is how high the water will squirt from the packing nut on the shaft. We repacked it but, on the hard, have now idea how tight to make it. Sue will be ready with wrench in hand!

Those of you frustrated by not being able to leave comments (Brian R.), that has now been fixed and thanks for alerting me to that. So, comment away!
