Today brings a bit firmer winds, not sure how much. No white caps but 5he surface is disturbed and I'm showed 7.5 kts with current. Franken Batten is holding sure. In 5he pic, its the middle one. So far I'd have to give it a super cheap and fast fix thumbs up. As an aside, I spent about 5 minutes trimming the sails, then I locked the tiller tamer and sat on the bow for 23 minutes before I got bored. If you don't have one, really it's well worth the money.

Maybe if I were not old enough to be his grand-pa I would still have the strength and agility to do it myself, but aging takes a toll on all of us. We do it on the side, because if I paid the marina's fees it would be about 4X more expensive.

Does anyone have a diagram that explains raising the mast on m23? Mine came with a system to raise with block and tackle but not sure how it works.
Thx!
Also what is Bob Eeg's email?
Josh
