I have heard of people brainstorming things like this but I have never seen one quite like this in action.

I stumbled on a web site of a French boat designer that has an incredible
reef/reduction system on his lug sail. Wondered if you've seen, or know of
this guy.

Here's one Barry sent me. He was here last week to pick up a boat hull. He had his camera running as I showed him the Helen Marie so you'll see a really candid video of me talking. If you wonder why the camera angles are off it's because he didn't tell me he was filming so he had to be sneaky. You'll notice that I didn't say a single bad word. If you enjoy this thank Barry; if you think it sucks thank Barry.

Today's Duckworks magazine article [8 Jan] brought back memories of 1989 when we also sailed in the Baltic and Finland.
To fill in the gaps of the story you might like to watch this video.
It includes quite a long section on the Gota canal, a visit to Helsinki and Mariehamn. Those of you who went to Sail OK will have already seen it
Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow...

My nephews live in Texas. In 2003, they came up for a visit, I made them
make a canoe with me (Selway-Fisher Raven) and then go on an overnight
canoe camping trip. The results were - let's just say it's easier to look back on them from 2013 than it was in 2003.

The Boating
The Canoe Plans (that was a damn fine canoe).
