Well I got called again to go racing, I changed boats this season, at least this time it is a woodenboat rather then that metal Herreshoff recreation I sailed last season. I will take many pics next week,....
Oh the toil of it, well somebody has to help those guys sail their little boat in Sardinia.

camera is well packed, Also remembered the most important things...

a tool roll, as there is always something to repair on these boats, last year the taffrail of eleanora got damaged due to the wake of a cruise ship in port, I did what I thought was a temporary repair with 2 rusty chisels and some scraps of teak from the bilge, the bungs were square due to no bungs or fostner bits, 3 coats of epiphanes later the owner looked at it and said " looks fine with me, no need for more! If you see her stern to admire my handiwork on the starboard side of the rail!
