Year: 2009

Yahoo!!! I finally have a clean white surface on Splendid. Check out the new video.

I think the work will start going a lot faster now. 95% of this job is all prep work. Splendid will be nice and shiny before she leaves Florida for points South. I missed a windlass I really wanted on ebay yesterday, I’m really bummed. I need an electric windlass and I’m really scrounging for a deal. My top pick would be a lighthouse, secondly I’d like an Ideal, and thirdly a Lofrans Tigress. I may end up going with 3/8 chain, but I’d really like 5/16ths HT. It’s stronger and lighter. I’m really bummed about the ideal windlass I missed yesterday. If anyone has a line on a good windlass for a great price, please let me know. The Ideal went for seven hundred and change.

Oh yeah, we also had some problems with a few DVD orders. Our shopping cart showed a few orders processed, but money never hit paypal. We also don’t have email addresses to contact the buyers. We are still working out a few bugs on the new site. Here are the order numbers and last names:

1045 Tingle
1036 Stevens
1030 Charbonneau

If your one of these people, please contact me.

Peace everyone

Sail Far!!!
