[Rhodes22-list] Playing at Anchor

[Herb Parsons]

That's funny. We lost the mast on our O'Day 25 a couple of weeks ago (a
chainplate pulled loose from the bulkhead). Everything is OK, including
the mast, but I have a little fiberglass work to do, and have to replace
the bulkheads.

We decided to use the opportunity to completely rebuild the inside, so
today was "take everything off the boat" day. I couldn't BELIEVE the
amount of stuff we've accumulated on that boat in 3 ½ years!! I think
"clean out the boat" is going to be on our January list from now on.

Julie,
Concerning extra gear on the boat. After you have had the boat a few  
seasons, go back through everything you have put on her. If you haven't
used  
something in the past year, the odds are that you didn't need it in the
first  
place.......get rid of it. I go through RumRunner every fall and remove
 accumulated 
stuff. You wouldn't believe the crap I've found. Of course, the 
reserve rum 
supply always remains on board.
