Perfectionist! (SMILE) Next thing you’re going to complain about is that the brass isn’t polished!
The rig is the most unique that I have ever sailed. Several hours after I took this photo the wind picked up a bit and the winch opposite the one you see in the bottom middle of this picture got torn right out of the deck after a tack. Lucky nobody was injured and there wasn’t a school group aboard instead of us old geezers.
Thanks for visiting and commenting.
The cowling(sp?) vents aren’t facing the right directions. I’m sorry but it was the first thing that I noticed. I like the way the jib sheets are led. That’s really intersting.
The cowloing vents are probably manually turned to catch whatever direction the wind is coming from.
