I went back in the water at start of February and already managed to blow a main out on the first days sailing. Though have to do alot of the work in May on the boat and get it proper ready for racing.

not in till later april or early may Still need a clean up and paint Want to re rig the bottle bolts on the shrouds and the aft cleats. Luckily replaced the forestay 5mm one with an 8mm last autumn. was going to try a 6 but the smallest in the chandlers was 8. Lost the clevis pin on the anchor and having broken free of lost one of the two stern moorings when a swell came, every large wave, the rode lifted up onto the stay and bent the screw on the jaw terminal through about 40 degrees. Had it gone I would still be anchored but with no rig or mast! Which brings me back to why I need more robust aft cleats Other than that I need to reconnect the electricity I re wired fix a light and secure the lifting line to the new keel winch I installed. Then I'm ready to roll!
