Chris, I don't have any plans to go to Annapolis, yet any excuse is good enough for me to visit that great town. One of the best of my best high school memories was going to diving camp at the Naval Academy. It's hard to beat diving into a pool all day then walking around nap town in the evening. The company did play a major part, I must admit. Coach Joe is a great guy! heh, heh... Since then it's has always been a wonderful place to visit. Especially now that I can take advantage of the bars.
I would really appreciate seeing the photos and the visit. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing it all in operation either! Your layout sounds sweet, I'm really curious to see how it works and is laid out. Oh about the racing, I have become a pretty good bowman, (although I think my talents are being wasted, I do great with a jib sheet in my hand too), but I say I won't be an idiot or anything and bend any poles. DOH! CD only charged $15 for the delivery. I thought that was pretty reasonable. NOw I just have to wait up to four weeks for it... Sounds like I have some time for a trip to Nap town. -Ivan --- On Sat, 8/16/08, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: catalina27-talk: Traveller To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, August 16, 2008, 6:06 AM Ivan - I will take a picture of my setup and send it to you, but can't do it till Monday. We are heading out of town in the morning. I have the boom end traveler system with the traveler sheets run forward in the cockpit. The main sheet is also run to the middle of the boom (just over the companionway), so one person can sit up on the coaming and control both the main sheet and traveler. I also have the jib sheet leads (Harken set) that really help control the shape of the jib when you are flying the #1 (150ish). If you happen to be coming through Annapolis any time soon, I would be happy to show you the set up. And I haven't forgotten about trying to get you a ride on a local boat in a race. We are coming to the end of the night series (my Friday night series ended last week and we only have 2 Wednesday nights left).
