BELLE is now in a storage shed, waiting for the sails to arrive. Then comes rigging, bottom painting, and final details...

Very warm today, for mid-March in Maine, so now I wish I had ordered the sails a month earlier. |

I'll be putting together a cover for the boat--she's only in this nice shed temporarily--so I bought a 12'-long 2x4 ridge pole and a tarp. The black stuff on the coamings is foam pipe insulation (available at hardware stores). It should protect the coamings from chafe once the tarp is on. |
Sails might come next week...I hope so!
À bientôt / until next time!
