Winter is Coming

Haul out was quite the adventure, but after three failed attempts and a backwards slide down the ramp with the boat in the sling, we got out! I have too many jack stands but it makes me feel better since we are between an island packet 30 and a friend's prized Bristol 29.9.  Our list of projects is tremendous but the main things will be to re-bed all the deck hardware including the mainsheet traveler, replace the gaskets in all the portlights, build a stack pack, scrape and re-paint the bottom, and if Cinderella (me) gets her way, I'll have time to strip all the blue paint off of the topsides and the boot stripe and re-paint in a nice greenish gray color.
