I just got off my lazy butt and ordered my bottom paint. Winter cover is still on though not for long. My Wife is out of town this weekend so Triple Play will get some love for a change.

Welcome back to the land of more pleasant living, Bob! Other than the bottom paint, how's the project list looking? I just added DC wiring to my cooler conversion and am hoping to surprise the wife with a cold glass of Heinekens from the mini keg that's now aboard - assuming I can ever get her out for a sail.

The list is ridiculous. My chartplotter spontaneously stopped getting signal. I still need to dig out my water tank, which is essentially glued into the bow with hard foam. I emptied my fuel tank out so I can replace it or at least avoid using 5 year old diesel again this year. I need to fix my reefing system. I need to replace my spinnaker halyard. None of my mast lights work. I need to fix the support under the mast...etc...etc...etc... It is getting tougher and tougher to get excited about sailing, especially as I my Wife has zero interest in it.

I just got to sail our new 9.2a this weekend
We bought the boat in late September and got to visit her several times last winter
had her launched 4 weeks ago but the weather was rotten on the weekends
yesterday we sailed to Middle Bass Island on Lake Erie
tore the strapping off the head of the genoa
today was awsome
beam reaching with kite up in 12k wind speed and 6.5k boat speed :)
things always get better
