Any way, here's some pictures of Neena sailing herself with a tiller line with surgical tubing at each end attached to snap hooks attached to strap eyes on the coamings. I have carry some luff in the main for balance but who cares.
About my new, to me, cat schooner and her refit. Built in 1978 in Clearwater Florida, designed by Walt Scott and owned by Britton Chance senior. I found her languishing in New Jersey and in need of a serious refit. My wife and I bought her from Britton's widow Shoko, who was glad to see her go to a caring home.
Neena at Clingstone
Saturday, July 25, 2015
Fantastic week for sailing around here. Light to moderate winds from mostly the north west. Comfortable temperatures too. I don't usually care for land breezes, they're so shifty but this lovely weather has been so sweet. In the morning I've been doing some varnishing in Bristol Harbor followed by some sailing in Mt. Hope Bay on Neena, tough life, I tell you what. A couple of lovely boats in Bristol harbor, an early Hinckley Pilot in fiberglass and a Concordia yawl.
