Its been a while

Sorry its been a while since I last posted.  You know how it goes... Holidaze!  Then trips... Work is killing me.  Then I promised my wife that I would re-do the bathroom.

So everything is settling back down, as much as life does.  In the past three months, I did have to replace the battery.

I built a PVC roller furler just to see how it would work.  Not bad.  It will take some more time out on the water to decide if its a really usable tool.  Since it only cost about $40, I am not out too much.

I took Monday and Tuesday off work this week, mainly because my parents are in town, and to take them out sailing, but then they threw in the twist that they were going to go spend a couple days with a friend.  No matter, Brooke and I went out on Monday, the breeze was just enough to move the boat along, but thats how Brooke likes it.  then in the afternoon I went out solo.  Good winds 8 to 10 knts, at least thats what the weather report said.
