Two weeks to go

In the last week I managed to have three more trainings. The first one bringing Mic Mac to Founex, one in Founex and finally a night training, sailing Mic Mac back to Versoix.

Bringing the boat to Founex and training outside of Founex

Training at night, bringing MM back to Versoix


It is now also time to start about thinking how to get Mic Mac in to shape for a probably long and if there is a lot of wind, demanding race.

I should have a close look at the boat and start improving what I can. If I go through my head there are already following things coming to my mind:

-Someone made a remark on our e-log that a screw is missing on one of the winches (better I check     that soon)
-The headsail sheets are too short and I need to prolong them
-someone made e remark about the racing headsail, there should be a small hole( I better have a look soon, just in case it needs professional repair
-the haljard for the small spi is to thin and slips in the cleat in lot of wind
-the compass light is not working
-ne spinnaker sheet is way too big and heavy, I will get a proper one from Bucher and Walt
- I need to remove all additional wheight on friday before the race (for ex. cushions in the bow, old sheets that are stored in the boat)
-lubricate all pullies and blocks
-what about installing an electric autopilot, just in case I find myself somehere close to Lausanne on Sunday, without wind? This could make my way home a lot more comfortable:)
