T -96 Days ... and counting!

Sauvage is such a beautiful boat. You got to love the French designers, they
do modern very well. From her nearly plumb bow to her full back end, she looks
purposeful and yet elegant. It will be fun getting to know this boat. But alas, she is still in cruise mode, needing desperately to be adorned with the jewelry of racing. Good news, everyone is pitching in, bad news, there is a ton of things to do! Sails, rigging, communication equipment, emergency rudder to build, safety equipment to install, a bottom to rub ... and some time for training would be good, so we're going to sail the Newport to Ensenada race this April as a little primer.
