back on the bay

phil and i were “tuning the rig”, i.e. adjusting the tension on the stays, for about the first hour of a perfect day out. the rest of the time was spent observing how purely tastefully the boate was handling, and how absolutely uncontrollably beautiful it was on the water. the new spreaders look awesome, as do the new lines. phil couldn’t stop leaning forward from the forestay and singing “her name is rio and she’s hungry like the wolves”.
