Something got done during the cold snap

There has been a lot of minus 30 to 40 degree weather lately.
Managed to sew up the mizzen sail at home using my crap sewing machine. I realized to do the lug sail I would need more room and a decent sewing machine. I went to Paul's place and in two long days got the job done. Thanks Paul.
The sails are constructed from a Sailrite kit. It was very easy to work with and even an idiot like myself could figure out the comprehensive instructions.
Sorry no pics. Maybe when it warms up I will hang the Lug Sail from the roof edge and take some pictures.
Don't imagine anything much will happen in the next four months or so. Hope to get back on track in the late spring.
