Took the crew out for a fast and fun sail on the trimaran. Learning lessons every tack. Including that the forward high side ama is the seat in the house and you may occasionally get drenched.

SHE FLOATS!
When we bought this boat we didn't do a survey or a sea trial. She had been on her trailer for over a decade. 11years to be exact. She was in a field and then vandalized. Call it stupidity, call it a rescue, call it what you want. What we can agree on is that it was a HUGE project that we got done very very fast because we didn't want to wait long for this day. Here we are. She floats!
we did find a few issues. The turn buckles are worse than we thought so we didn't raise the sail but we motored her from white rocks to Youngs marina where she'll be until the channel opens back up to the city. We have a plan for the standing rigging and will be sailing her soon.

Another run out to the Dali. Beginning to feel a bit trapped in the river but enjoying our time on the water anyway!

Ran the dinghy over to Canton to ship Lucy's baby blanket and get dog food. Errands are much better on the dinghy.
