On Friday afternoon we got to take the first sail of the 2010 season to bring Prairie Gold back to Constitution marina. But before the fun started we had a few things to take care of on the boat. We put up the main and head sails, installed the new anchor and chain, bimini frame and bimini, the bbq, checked winches, halyards, sheets, and jacklines, electronics and autopilot, and through hulls, flushed, filled and primed hot and cold water tanks and systems and started up the fridge.
Phil and Dustin attaching the clew to the main sail outhaul, it was very exciting to see the sails going up!
Check out how happy Phil looks to be sailing again!!
Despite the cloudy skies, and spits of rain, it felt great to be sailing again!! And of course we were making big plans for what trips the coming weeks might hold!!
In Boston harbor and close to home...you can see Boston's Zakim bridge sticking up from the horizon.
