Breeze On went through her safety equipment inspection this afternoon. We ticked all of the boxes and passed without any issues to fix. George is so relieved. He has worked very hard reviewing the requirements and gathering and organizing the equipment.

As we were washing the salt off of the enclosure panels a photographer asked if he could take our pictures and interview us for Chesapeake Bay Magazine. We agreed. Why not? Then we started measuring and marking the straps that will enable us to roll the panels when not in use. We added one snap when we were at anchor the other night. It enabled us to keep the egress door out of the way.

There are quite a few planned activities with this rally. There is a social event most nights and quite a few seminars. We have met some nice people at the social events and plan to attend most of the seminars.

Hi, I noticed in the picture of your ARC flag that the radar reflector appears to be attached top and bottom only? If so, it will spin in the wind. That gives noise and damages the line. To stop it from spinning, simply loop a piece of line from the side of the reflector (drill a small hole, if necessary) around the stay, and voila! Good luck, Willem
ReplyDeleteGeorge decided not to secure it on the sides because we used it only for the passage. He didn't want to have to climb the mast to put it up and take it down.
