This episode we continue with ongoing boat projects, including installing the CDI mainsail reefing system, ripping out our carpet headliner, and sewing our new main sail. We also get a brand new Mast Mate to help us climb the mast in the future.

As areas get completed, the boat feel a little nicer a...
We get back our rudder pintles and reinstall our rudder with new tiller. We also go check out the St. Petersburg Power and Sailboat Show to get some ideas for our future boat.
