Sailing Season 2023 is Finished

 Just a quick update on the Bolger Bobcat, now named Whoa Nellie. We've added some epoxy and I added a single layer of paint. It should be noted the paint is not the final bottom paint but another barrier to protect the wood this winter. But with the area for the skeg and the centerboard masked off I think it looks pretty sharp. From thirty feet away. While squinting. It was a rush brush job after all. 

Now epoxied up to the sides.

Add a good tarp and we're good to go for storage.

It was a good year of sailing. Ran some races. Didn't come last in all of them. Boat on the hard in the yard for another month for hopeful work. I'll do a major update post later but for now it was a good year.
