Video Series on Youtube

[Napa Ed]

This series started last year. Going around the island a little bit each season. Author expects it to take 4 years. In the end it will all be edited into a DVD.
Great boats; many varieties.
This is the latest where the author Dylan Winter bums a ride on a local fellows brig. He has no interest in "plastic lozenges" or motor yachts.

I have a 10' wood sailing dinghy that has that exact sail set up as that boat. It has no running rigging to speak of and I had no clue how to set it up. The sail was brand new in a bag and had never been raised. It's hand made with brass all over and has only been wet once. I doubt that boat will ever get sailed. I tried once but didn't have the sail set up right.
That is the first time I have seen one set up and being used. Thanks for that video. If I ever do get around to doing somehting with it, I have some instructions.
