Or come to North Carolina. 63 and sunny, 6-8 kt winds on Saturday. 68 on Sunday. Southwest is cheap to Raleigh, We'll have brunch at the club and then sail. I've just introduced my Admiral to Pain Killers, so there will be refreshments (though I use Cruzan Black Strap instead of Pusser's).

Here's a satellite picture of Lake Superior from almost exactly four years ago -- the area I primarily sail is the grouping of islands near the western end of the lake: http://www.crh.noaa.gov/images/mqt/Lake%20Superior%20ice%20Mar3_09tbig.jpg So all the boats in the marinas are hauled out and put on cradles or jackstands in the parking lot. That means about 120 boats, mostly sail, at the marina where I keep my boat. It does get a bit crowded; you can literally walk all the way across the large parking lot by stepping from one deck to the next -- something like this, but a lot closer together, and with much more snow: http://www.clydemarina.com/images/winter_storage.jpg I expect to launch sometime in May, with any luck -- but it's been a very snowy late winter here, so it's hard to tell. I'd be very happy to trade boats with you for a while, since you're so looking forward to being on the hard, and I'd love to be somewhere with warm water for a change. :^) Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- on the hard in Bayfield, WI :^( On Mar 26, 2013, at 6:03 AM, Anthony Mitchell <[email protected]> wrote: When do you think you will get off the hard? We will be up for a pretty major refit after this stint as well, because the boat has been in remote locations for a long time now and has been maintained out of suitcases. It will be nice to get onto the hard for some serious work :) _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com [email protected] -- Joel 301 541 8551
