Awesome Hugh!
... but we're gonna need more details about the spinnaker - color? size? photos? etc, ... details, we need details :)
(sorry, it's the spinnaker-holic in me talkin' out loud, obviously the downwind group therapy class is not working)

Good info & reminders guys. I haven't even taken this thing out the box yet. No prob with registering. Weather has been crappy but at least NY hasn't been hammered like the middle States.

... I forgot to mention I also got this little book; "Rich Johnson's Guide to Trailer Boat Sailing".
Some good info for new Mac owners, and a few reminders for experienced ones.
Although I already have many "Trailer Sailing" books, this one has its own appeal because it's written by a Mac :macx: owner and his wife from around our Salish Sea sailing grounds. (Northwest Washington / Southwest B.C.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salish_Sea

That's a good book. I have it and it does come from the experience of a Mac owner. Some funny stuff in there too.

Got an Adventure Medical Marine 1000 kit. (no first aid kit is ever good enough for an active duty Paramedic, but this one is decent) And the promise of a Raymarine EV-100 Tiller Pilot so that I have something to tinker with over the winter.

Ruddersafe outboard steering aid (hopefully useful when it's so shallow that even the rudders have to stay up)
8 kg Kobra anchor
Bow roller for the above anchor
A new bi-color LED light (because the roller will render the current unit even more useless than it already was)
A marine toilet
2 40 Wp solar panels
MPPT solar charge controller

You, Santa's been generous. But he also plundered my bank account... :wink:
