Well here's to the New Year and may all have a great year for sailing.
Haleakula had to be rested on land a few weeks ago as a late fall hitting a submerged object in Cornfield Creek seems to have injured the keel bolt under the mast. There was a steady filling up of the bilge over time and it wasn't safe leaving her in her normal winter berth in her slip.
The mast will be pulled in a week oe so to access the damage, but there was evidence along the leaing edge and one side of the keel. It will give us he opportunity to doing some work conditioning thru hulls as well as put a New steaming light on the mast. Donna has finished all he new cushions.
The Ultima 60 we put on 3 seasons ago was still going strong.
Well March 15 won't be far away.
Good health and New Years to all our Chessie friends.
