It was too windy, and too busy, to get the boat out today, but I tried some driveway sailing instead. I wanted to try and set up a topping lift/lazy jack arrangement, which required a bit of fiddling. And it was good to practice raising the sail and rigging everything. Sail set looks much better. I timed my last attempt:7 minutes to raise mast, fit rudder and tiller, raise sail, adjust topping lift and down haul. About 5 minutes to put it all away again. I think it is worth giving sailing a go, I could get an hour or so of sailing in I rekon.
