The Wharf Rat is back in the water - after five years on the hard while we were living out in Chicago. She's been with me at the Charlotte Sailing Center on Lake Champlain (VT), Pine Island Marina on Fisher's Island Sound (CT), and now at the Village Street Dock on Marblehead's West Shore (MA). A good old friend.

Great
Chicago, Charlotte, Fishers Island, Marblehead; been around.
I know the drill, and the feeling.
Best wishes for good sailing.

Yep, we've both been around a few times.
She may well be in better shape than I am, at this point.

Thanks, Warren. Put in some serious elbow grease getting her back in form this spring, not to mention re-coring the aft deck and re-bedding the mainsheet hardware.Warren S wrote:(n/m)
She looks pretty good from about ten yards away...
