STILL in Miami Beach...

No Bahamas this year it would seem - the winds have gone from the east to the north - to make the Bahamas you need anything BUT north, and east is a close second worst choice. Still, it's been fun here in Biscayne Bay, although I'll be leaving later this week, heading for Chesapeake Bay and then the Great Lakes for the summer.
Finally got the new solar panels up today - still need to strap them down properly, but they're up, producing lots of power and that's what matters at the moment. Expecting a friend to sail in sometime today, he and his wife have come down the Mississippi from the Great Lakes and all the way around to here...
And....if you check, you'll see there's a new page up here - it's on repairing your mainsail by yourself. This is one of the videos that Tory at TheSailingChannel.tv and I do together. Take a look, let me know what you think of it, the link is Repairing your mainsail . Special thanks to my special assistant on this video...
