Winter 2010 - 2011...Brrrrrr

Preparations for 2011 Season:

  • Fix the split rudder
  • Sand and varnish the tiller handle
  • Fix the bow, looks like someone bumped into the dock a little too hard. Epoxy and cloth here i come!
  • Knot meter is broken. Time to replace it!
  • No wind instrumentation. Got to have it!
  • Sheet and halyards need replacing. Hello Chandlery, do you have frequent buyer discounts!
  • Electrical need serious improvement. Would like to add USB port for charging cell phones plus instrument panels for additional electrical components
  • Improve navigation electrical system. Start thinking LED's for better (less) power usage. Will be attending overnight races in 2012
  • Existing sail inventory seem fair, Kevlar main and genoa. Dacron #2 and #3 jib, #2 main.
  • Bilge pump stopped working Sep 2010, time to look for replacement.
  • Boat is rigged for fully crewed racing. Time to start thinking about hardware placement and usage for Double handed.
