Walt,

    You are in Brookings, and you have a Albin Vega? I have an Albin Vega as well and have never had her in the water yet. In fact, I have never even sailed on an Albin Vega…I am blaming Chuck for this one LeaLea. I watched his videos and the next thing I know, I am off to Texas to bring an Albin Vega home. And to go one more step, I have never stepped foot on a sail boat…lol. Now maybe I should be calling Dr. Phil and working out some issues?  So Walt, if you find the need for some company one of these weekends and feel like explaining every move on how to sail the Albin Vega…which is sitting in my shop getting a complete make over, give me a call.

Walt,
Sounds like some fun times.  Brookings is beautiful.  What is the harbor like there?  Thanks for measuring.  Let me take some more measurements and get back to you.  My email is jbergman888@... so we can email offline.  Bruce

Hi Bruce, I lived on Lyric in Redwood City on the San Francisco bay. I met Judy when she was working for West Marine at store #1 in Palo Alto. We took Lyric to Mexico in 1998 and stopped for a few weeks in San Diego. We left Lyric in 2000 on the hard in San Carlos, Mexico. We lived for about a year in the San Diego area afterwards and then moved to Crescent City California (known for its history of Tsunamis). Lyric was in our backyard on a trailer when the last one hit and is now in the marina in Brookings Oregon. Anyway about the sail. This is the first time I\'ve measured it and I\'m thinking it might be a Yankee. The clew is cut pretty high. I\'ve never flown it, in fact this is the first time it\'s been out of the bag since I\'ve had it.
Luff is 23\'4"
Leech is 18\'6"
Foot 10\'
One of the hanks needs to be replaced.
The cringles at the head and tack are pretty corroded and have been modified at some time in the past with bronze thimbles. It looks to have been a professional job.
There are a few rust spots on the sail. It looks to be serviceable but I don\'t think you would want to use it as a light air sail. If you are still interested let me know.
I don\'t know too much about the Series 3 boats.

Hi David, SailboatListings.com is online and has a search section where it says make, type in Albin. Leave model blank. For some reason if you type in Vega you get three listings if you leave it blank you get 9 or 10 Vegas and a couple of Ballads also.              Walt To: albinvega@yahoogroups.comFrom: AlbinVega@yahoogroups.comDate: Tue, 19 Aug 2014 02:08:36 +0000Subject: RE: [AlbinVega] Hank On Jib, Larry
