7 Winter Maintenance Haiku for you!

4/28/2020

We've been hard at work this winter preparing Friend Ship and Wild Rose in our little "Ship Shop" in Georgia. We've done all sorts of routine maintenance like sanding/varnishing the spars and all the wooden pieces of each boat. We've also done more long-term improvements like installing new lifelines, upgrading instruments/gauges, and improved the running rigging. We've had such a blast and, as always, have learned a lot along the way. Now that it's almost time to launch, I've been reflecting upon this winter's work in the form of some lighthearted Haiku poems.

Hope you enjoy!

I’m in trouble now
Got epoxy in my hair
Never coming out.

Regrettably, this is a true story. While trying to get a better look at the area of the deck I was repairing, I leaned my head over to one side and dunked my hair into a plateful of epoxy I had just mixed and set aside. Lesson learned, I guess...
