May 1st saw me down at the club helping clean up the yard after launch weekend. My goals at launch are to help set up the drysail boats, making sure my drysail spot is OK, and look for potential crew. (Link to drysail .mov. My boat is the black masted J which is located next to the clubhouse.)
I have spent most of the past week trying to organize crews. Last year there was one committed crew member for the first Wednesday race. This year I have commitments for the 'Spring round the Island' (May 12).
May 5/6th saw me fixing up the boat. The deck was washed and the hull cleaned. The main sheet was re-attached. The sails, motor and lifejackets were put back abroad. The lights don't work but I think it is merely a matter of cleaning up the terminals. I didn't demast last fall so 'launch' is pretty easy.
