Went sailing with Judy. Very nice day on the water.. Wind was about 15 knots from the N/NE coming off the coastline. It layed the waves down so that the water was flat near shore. Really nice sailing. Breck in Runnaway just scooted by us.. even though he is much heavier the longer waterline paid off today.
Made the mistake of not re-leasing the boom vang after practicing putting a reef in. I shook out the reef and then tightened up on the main halyard to put the sail all the way back up. It got stiff and I heard a spang!!! sound.. lol don’t ask me to tell you what spang!! sounds like :). Long story short It bent the stainless fitting on the mast base that it attaches to and turned loose. I fixed it the next morning.
