You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

LOL....Damn kids.... it seems they are packing the cradle up and down the stairs.... the stick got in the way (but the twin keels are still attached )

She was racing at 1 week old, her dad was in SF this past weekend finalizing the sale of a Melges 32 - don't think there's much chance of her ending up a stinkpotter!

Thanks all for the congrats and comments.

I like the fact that you put a sculling notch in the transom... nice touch.

That's very cool looking. But if I were you I'd get rid of the lines, it poses a strangulation hazard.
