You'll need that full enclosure up there in that rotten weather

Wow! VERY nice looking boat.

Now please furl the jib all the way. Wouldn't hurt to have a few wraps of the sheets as well.

Ditto on the headsail - - -kind of like being underway with the fenders out

Rick

PS If it won't furhl any further, you need to unfurhl it totally (at the dock) and adjust the lines. Always try to keep pressure on the line as you are furhling in the headsail for maximum sail extention and retrieval. (Man - - - didn't that SOUND like I knew what I was talking about?).

When you copy the IMG link from PhotoBucket, you can just paste it directly into your post. You do not need to click on the Img button. That is why you have the funny tags alongside your picture. Nice looking boat! Enjoy!

At least on this side of Canada we can sail all year round . only 41F today foggy but still had fun sitting at the dock

I prefer 75+F and rest my case

Yes, you are correct - - - just sitting at the dock is quite enjoyable, your enclosure will be very useful and make your boat that much more enjoyable.

Good Luck with your boat and new pastime.

I also just purchased a 96 Mac 26x this September after wanting one for year. It has been great, I just got back from a over night trip to Sidney spit and D'Arcy island with some boy scouts. It was a bit cool but a lot of fun. And now I am think I need a full enclosure, or at least a dodger. I'll keep a eye out for you next time I'm out sailing (I'll be the guy frozen to the helm).

If you attach your foresail sheets with a shackle instead of a knot, it is a lot easier to do this of course. Whe i slipped my boat, i also put a sail tie on the genie to keep it in place.

Nice boat! Nice enclosure! I refuse to write how jealous I am.
