Well okay, the refurbishments aren't done yet... Deanna has nicely done combings in her shop just waiting on the indolent helmsman to get off his duff and varnish the suckers, but time is a wasting... so on a nice breezy Sunday, the Admiral threw the old half-decayed combings in the car and we headed to the boat... the helmsman and the grandson (now promoted to navigator) scrapped the lower unit of the motor, the same motor helmsman was supposed to bottom-paint, and headed out for a day sail... We threw in one reef in the main since it was kicking up a bit from time to time and just enjoyed whooshing along... the reef took care of the weather helm we get from time to time with these elderly, and baggy, sails (helmsman has a "new" mainsail just waiting to be bent on, but does he get with it.... noooo...). But the day was sunny and pleasant, we switched roles from time to time so everyone got a little more accustomed with several more boaty things, and when the reefing hook jammed itself in the cringle, it became apparent that the helmsman has yet another chore he must attend to... boy, something defective with that helmsman... hope the Admiral doesn't run an inspection before we get Wings in shape...
