Really good "How to" site

Maybe some of you already know about this one, but I found a really good "how to" site.

It's not mine - I wish it were.

I think this is MaineSail's site, a former regular contributor to Sailnet.

I think MaineSail is still on - I didn't catch the connection. Good man, MaineSail is.

I have all the photos for about 25+ more articles but time is the killer!

Thankfully MaineSail still contributes....that link is to the single best resource I have found for multiple jobs; it is indeed awesome. How he manages to photo all those tasks so crisply beats me. In fact, he did another post today about adapting an old transducer cable to am modern display...simple but sweet work.

(Dang the Maine Man beat me to it)

Looks like a good web site. I can see some stuff that will come in handy when we haul out next Spring.
