Sewing and Prep to leave

It started to rain right as we all came up for capstan so we just went straight to doing more fixing on the sail. Some parts of the bolt rope are tricky to reattach because there is too much rope or too much sail so you have to do some squishing and easing.

In the afternoon we prepped to leave, heading over to sailfish marina tomorrow for a shindig. We moved the cannons, knocked down some bungs, moved all the boxes and steps back aboard and put the helm back together. The helm drum now has 11 turns around it that could be tightened some more, but at least has a proper whipping at midships.

I’m really tired because last night I got hardly any sleep with the dolphin rubbing against the whale board all night.

  1. What's a whale board?
    Why did the dolphin rub against it all night?
    Was it hiding, sleeping or did it think it was another larger dolphin?
    Did it keep everyone else awake?

    ??????????????????????????

    Hope you get to make up your ZZZZZzzzzzzs
