A windy day, but we managed to send Ron up the mast to
re-fit the wind vane and halyard lines that we take down for the winter. We also managed to get the mainsail, genoa
and screecher fitted, so we’re now ready for a sail! The dinghy engine would not start, so Ron
dismantled and cleaned the carb which somehow had lots of oil in it – unusual
for a 4 stroke engine! Having hardly
worked on engines since the late 70’s Ron was pretty happy to get the engine
working again. Since Teresa doesn’t know
anything about engines, she had to go for a bike ride
The weather was great, with perfect winds for our first trip
to Burlington, and its 10 day long Jazz Festival. Unfortunately we didn’t have time for the
trip today.
