I'm still debating this one, but hope to make up my mind in the next week or so. Early = less on land maintenance, more sailing! Late means a couple of tweaks might make for better comfort. Still working on the list of priority projects...

Going for a sail today on Lake Michigan off Racine, WI. Expected high today - 86F - half my harbor is tucked away for winter and I will be enjoying a summer like sail today. In one week they shut off the water.

I'll probably keep her in Waukegan IL.
One trip...
