A while back? -- during the dark cold days of winter - may have even been before the switch to Yahoo - there was a discussion of a really important topic.? RUM!!!
Well, I have important news to report? Y'all must try a shot of Meyers Original Dark Rum in a highball glass with ginger ale and an ice cube or two.? Nectar of the God's my friends.? Guaranteed to reset your attitude and overcome any stress resulting from your efforts to get your boat off the hard and onto the water in sailable condition.? Right now I have my newly purchased '75 Cat 27 nearly ready to go - got the title transfer problems with the State of New Jersey and the State of New York just about straightened out - mooring gear all assembled and now in the river -- redid all the brightwork - new bottom paint -- will get the hull buffed up tomorrow - scrubbed the interior-- - '85 Honda 100 outboard is purring like a cat on liver -- checked out the through hulls - spiffing up the hull and deck -- complete set of new sails -- just cut and assembled? the new CDI roller furler -- will find out if we measured twice and still cut too short-- but with the help of my friends we will get it installed this Saturday.? BUT - at this moment I have a glass of Meyers and ginger in hand and life is good. Fair Winds my Friends, John McLaughlin Shambhala - Hull 1994-75 C27 SR
