Sailor's Cove: The Adventure Continues

I can imagine drinking that much coffee, but having doubts about the availability of washrooms later.

Just pee to lee! LOL

I guess that is with the wind.

Go with windward and guess no more

In a surprising turn of events, I'm in a good mood this AM. Ready to take on the day!

 

[hairball18]

You are always in a good mood. That is part of the appeal of the cove.

I wasn't yesterday afternoon.
I'm over it though.

Although my latest task has me questioning my being nice lately.

 

[hairball18]

With your skills, I am confident that you will get through it.

Oh I'm done. LOL...
Now it's time for the rest of them to cry...

I've decided that my job is to suck their little souls dry until they give up hope...

 

[hairball18]

You play with the bull, you get the horns right?

I really think the teak deck is awesome. Although I'm not a fan of the roller furling systems, I'm told I should be.

 

[hairball18]

I do like the new crew members.

Whaaat!! Jibs and gennakers are a must. Never main furling, can't have battens or can't be fully battened and with lazy jacks don't really need it. Get over yourself

There's a boat in this picture?

I think they are going to work out well.

Maybe, but I like to change foresails in differing conditions...seems like this doesn't allow that well. I mean, somehow "reefing" a Genoa isn't the same.

Wait what?

Have you never seen storm jib, jib, genoa all lined up just waiting to unfurl. Okay I am not advocating this scenario for racing and you should realise by now my whole outlook is cruising and not racing. What about spinnaker socks?

Disclaimer: Doesn't mean you can't race it just means it's not optimal but sometimes you just have to have fun.

Edit: I got a bit ahead of myself

 

[lakesailer_mi]

I'm gonna be super not productive today meetings at 9:30, 11, 2:30 and 3:30. Yup, a day full of meetings.
