After finally getting all of the problems worked out on Vesper we go for one last sail of the season on the Chesapeake Bay before winterizing the boat. It’s just a day sail but a reminder of why we try and keep our boats in good order.
It was, just too short. Already this week I paid my usual, once a month, visit to the boat (which is in the water) and had to deal with a frozen mast bilge line. Took about 30 minutes to resolve but it’s depressing to visit a boat you a
can‘t sail till spring.
