Still On The Hard

     Yes, ABISHAG is still high and dry, though there is some hope that this will change soon. At this time I have come to accept that it will happen when it happens. 

     I will be heading down to ABISHAG after working at the Loft and a fiend of Kevin will be coming down to work on a mast winch. This particular winch has been jamed for a couple of years and part of the reason for this is that I haven't been able to dismantle it to work on the problem. "Uncle Peter" is good at taking nautical things apart and will make his best effort to take the winch apart and help me get the problem, whatever it is, fixed. The weather is "iffy" so that will rule out bottom painting today but I will be able to do a lube job on all of the shackles, blocks, tracks and other such items so that they move and functions easily as they should.

     Tomorrow and Saturday will be launch driver days. Saturday will be particularly busy as we have a major ECSA race at the club. I doubt that I will get out of the launch one I get into it on Saturday.  Right now the weather look very good which will be a blessing. There has been a lot of wind, fog and rain the last week so I hope we won't see any of that Saturday ( or Sunday).
