We launched on Thursday morning and I spent some time re-rigging.  I guess I was tired from two weeks of intense travel, work and other stress but I cound not figure out how the main sheet tackle was to be rigged.  The pulleys just would not align correctly so I was not doing something correctly.

I wrote this whole thing once before but it was lost in an internet blip and I did not have the stamina or inspiration to rewrite it Thursday night.  SAM buffed and waxed the whole boat and it now has a nice sheen – not water wet look but a nice and fitting glow.  We worked SA,SU,MO pretty hard.  I finished the details of rewiring the mast and terminated the wires in the bilge.  Now all that has to be done is to connect the power to light up the anchor, steaming and deck lights.  When I get some time I will install the new wind system readout above the depth/water speed guage.  Wednesday I bought a piece of teak to cover up the old hole and serve as the mount for the instrument. There is a lot left to do this season to get the insturments set up the way I want it to function.

I also need to get the GPS plotter up and running too.  I can use the handheld GPS to navigate but I prefer to have the Plotter running too.
