I have partnered with Island Water World a major marine chandlery store here in the Caribbean to help out other sailors. Jay is a great guy, and super helpful sailor. Always there when others need it. So I figured it was time someone helped him and repayed just a little bit of his good karma.

After finalizing our chain locker redesign, we get to work on designing the plate our windlass is going to sit on. Due to material shortages we have to get a bit creative! Steel sailboats are quite the thing.
