Sailing Grace: Lively Late Summer Sail, Prep for Road Trips

A couple of projects to improve the trailing rig for long road trips, like my hope of sailing w/ SV Seeker before she leaves Oklahoma and heads out to sea, or the Elbow Run, or...whatever.

And a nice sail, out in late July with a lively breeze from the north/northeast.

The use of the "movers blanket" for bags for the fins came out really well I thought, thanks to my wife's sewing expertise.

The tarp tie-down straps were from the Better Boat company--check 'em out. I did a video with more focus on our interactions here:
