Those of us with experience sailing, paddling, and rowing light expeditionary craft on adventuresome treks have a bit of a duty to set good, seamanlike examples to those who are paying attention to what we do, both to further the passion, and ensure that those who follow our path do so in safety. For they, in turn, will be the ones to further the passion in years to come.”

Modifying The Existing Sails…
Budgets and unproven ideas being what they are, I decided to modify Discovery’s admittedly old and out of shape sails for the 2013 Everglades Challenge. New sails would have been great, and there is a friendly member of the AMF … Continue reading
A Successful Weekend Test Sail…
With Discovery pretty close to being sorted out, and apparently watertight, I decided to take her out for a fully Challenge-loaded overnight sail and camp. I had planned to head out about 10:00 AM on Saturday, but, things being what … Continue reading
Discovery’s Light Air Strategy…
With the bowsprit and Aidric Hunt’s Sail ( https://claritysailingadventures.wordpress.com/2011/01/13/our-official-sailmaker/ ) , I should really have a good turn of speed in light air. Provided, of course, we actually GET some light air during this years’ Everglades Challenge. Here’s a few pictures of … Continue reading
A Proboscis?!?
Yes indeed, our little Discovery has Pinocchio-ized: she now sports a bowsprit! This is to ensure that Aidric’s Sail can be flown from a vessel of Discovery’s diminutive stature… kind of like one of those racing skiffs so popular in Australia, … Continue reading

A Splice Of Life… (or: Hello Blisters, My Old Friends…)
Like a curmudgeonly old friend you like more than you let on, the bite of Marlow #4 whipping twine has been nipping at my digits, especially my right little finger, as I whip the ends of the main halyard, sheet, … Continue reading
Progress…
Things are moving on nicely… I’ve got the holes cut for the inspection ports (three of them, all clear so I can see into them without opening them), I have the bowsprit figured out, and I’ve got all the reinforcements … Continue reading
