Little over a week to go ........
« on: Tue, June 16, 2009, 08:48:46 »
...... everyone hyped and ready to go? We are really looking forward to meeting everyone and starting on our first trip up the Delta. Getting the beer and water toys loaded, buying bug spray, checking out google maps, and reading all the great advice in this forum. See you all at the kick off dinner.

We're getting excited!  Thinking about all the last minute "projects".  Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Regarding last minute projects, Jonathan had ambitions for the interior of rebuilding the bulkhead (which is delaminating), painting the interior, rebuilding the pipe berths (replacing the old sailcloth fabric with less old sailcloth), rebuilding the cushions with new foam and new fabric, redesigning the V-berth, even building an enclosure for the porta-potty. But what's it's come down to is: just clean it.

One project that hasn't fallen off the to-do list: build a temporary dodger/windscreen for the bash back. I can sail in the Delta for days and not get sunburned, but I always get wind burn on the bash back to the Bay. I show up at work and everyone thinks I got lazy with the sunscreen, but it's just the wind.
