Bright sunshine |
The covers have come off! Again! |
Two men and two hours, this time. |

Our Lady's new and definitely improved homeport in Kantvik has been dredged
and equiped with fantastic new pontoons. |
23.5. Preparing the mast. |
Flooding- and pumptest in progress... We suggest that you always check
for leaks as you put the boat into water... Or at least have your pumps
ready. |
|
|
|
We decided to try out two masts this season... |
...but it didn't turn out just right, so the old mast is back in business |
25.5. Testing the new genua off Lauttasaari in light conditions |
|
|
|
The sails looks marvelous, even in very light wind and on
a badly trimmed mast. |

Up in the air the CarboCuben-"sailcloth" is like
a wing - no stretch, perfect body -, but ones on deck it becomes more or
less difficult to handle as the material is quite tough. |
