The year was….

But seriously, it is in the running for the worst season with the boat. It was slow getting started, weatherwise, and just as that seemed to be straightened out, there was this squall on July 4. Sunset was accompanied by 70 mph winds which propelled a nearby boat into Risa causing enough damage to the lifelines and stantions to ruin the remainder of the season.

My friends say we did not miss much as most had issues besides the weather to deal with. I managed to replace the damaged stantchions and lifelines, however there is a six week lead time on the pushpit (aft) rail. It and the gelcoat damage will be repaired over the winter.
