vessels i've captained...

 

shrouds

Penelope deserves a little attention, even if it is only for a few short minutes a day.  Stretching hemp, splicing bullseyes, the smell of pine tar, fantastic.  What is this, the Gothenburg?  No, but I'm stoked regardless.

Speaking of stoked, Erik graced me with his presence today.  There hasn't been two jeeps undergoing simultaneous fabrication or repair here for ages!

Need a mast cap??

There was a blue light special on mast caps at k-mart, so i went out and got one.

Penelope - wheel taking shape

I don't have a lathe, router, or handy sanding drums.  Perhaps patience will have to shape her.

Updates on Penelope

On my way to sailing a Weekender class pocket yacht.

Won't be long now I hope!
