Launching and rigging today went without a hitch. The weather was absolutely perfect, and the boat behaved beautifully. Four of the shrouds required shortening, so it's good my rigger had planned to be on hand.

No sailing yet, as the genoa has not been built (so that the sailmaker could obtain accurate measurements once the boat was rigged), and there's a need for some mast tuning. I am also awaiting delivery of my new traveler, which seems to be delayed.

Anyway, enough already. Here are a few photos for now. I'll get some better ones later. Apologies if your browser is below 1024 resolution.

Wow, does that ever look great! Definitely well worth a little scrolling on my small screen :-)

Congrats!

Very nice!

As we say here in Maine, that's the kind of boat God would have, if he could afford it.
