I did not expect this much red on Valentine’s Day. Yesterday we left Montserrat and sailed to St. Kitts in very light wind. Hunter thought it would be great to fly the spinnaker (actually it is an asymmetrical sail). This sail is rigged when needed and lives in a long sock made of very light nylon. Hunter rigged the sail and did not get it quite right and the red monster got in the rigging and the sock got torn.
The task today was to patch the hole and repair two ten foot rips in the sock. The sock is about 50 feet and is quite a monster when out of the big sail bag. Not to worry we did the repairs and the red monster is back in the bag.
