Two major projects await this season. Sew up a 140 genoa from a Sailrite kit and install a Yacht Saver inflation system. At a little less cost than a true liferaft, this solu-tion is not cheap. But, less expensive than one hour's helicopter rescue time, and clearly cheaper than a three day stay in the hospital recovering from a few snoot's full of H20. We won't talk about a one way trip to Seabrook's Funeral parlor in our historic old river town of New Albany.
Spring looks like busy boating.
About a dozen Potter Dutters planned to pot about the 1 x 3 mile bathtub. Thanks to a dash of KC master bar-becue the dish was quite a success at the Lake Monroe Messabout. Its worth repeating at Rend Lake. I'm hoping Paul Cormican, the oldest of the Geezers, can come down to help sew up the genoa. His help feeding the vast sheets of stiff sail panels through the throat of the sewing machine would be invaluable.
