April 01 2014 - On the moment sail

today was a perfect day for a quick sail around the neighbour!

Ah just laying here, basking in the sun, with Hank cleaning off my winter downfall (bird droppings)... great day... what could be better eh?  Well maybe a sail would be nice...

I guess Hank had the same idea, as he got up and heading off to see Richard and Pat Grass, who too were busy cleaning their boat. Moments later, they all came back, carrying their life-jackets.

Looks like we are going sailing!!!!

Nice little sail around the blocks... They all had a coffee break aboard, sailing in the sun.

On the way back, somehow we did an accidental jibe! Hank always warns people about my low boom... it seems he needs to listen to himself. Low boom +  accidental jibe = smashed face! Hank got a really bad cut on his left cheek, blood + bruising + sore for 3 days after. I guess we now know where the boom got it's name. :)

Hank now has installed a "rubber boot" over the boom on the hopes if will minimize the possible damage.

All is well... Tarka out!
