We had a nothing short of spectacular day on Saturday with winds in the
18-25 range and 75 degrees sunny /  dry weather.  The wind was coming from
the NW at an angle good to go the length of the lake on a beat in 2 tacks
and cruise back home 7-8 knots all the way down.

We went to a really good airshow on Sunday: In short, a phenomenal weekend.

This time along with spring are the best sailing seasons here, the fall
racing season is in full swing and the weather is great.  Fairly strong
winds and temps in the mid - 60's  - mid 70's during the day and 40's at
night are fairly common from now through late November / early December.
Las year, December was great too, we had an exciting sail on Christmas
Eve..

The little Caframo Heater keeps the cabin cozy for overnights and is the
only required  'Winterizing" step:   I just need to make sure we leave it
on duty when we close-up the boat for the work week and freezing starts to
happen at night.

Subject: Re: Stus-List sailing this weekend

Went to my boat Saturday late.  Stayed overnight and enjoyed the quiet and
solitude, having the whole marina to myself.  It dropped into the 40's and
everyone else went home.  Today I stayed in the slip because of the cool
weather and gusty 20+ winds.  No boats went sailing.  Instead I finished a
few projects and started few more, and made some new friends helping them
with their boats.  I always learn new techniques, watching how others do
things.

Found a lot of play in my steering last time out, so I tightened the cable
and lubed it.  Found a teaspoon of rust under the pedestal, so I think it's
due for a new idler sheave mounting plate?  That's probably why the cable
got loose?   I could only find complete assemblies for $450 online.  All I
need is the plate.  The sheaves and uprights are fine.  Has anybody else
replaced theirs?  I'd like to get a bronze one.
