Kyle - sounds like you might have to tuck a reef in!

Re my post above, here are some pictures from the storm. Might be more than a reef tuck!

I don't have hard-wired tunes for Lucky Dawg. Amy got me this for my b-day... and it rocks… http://www.amazon.com/Hercules-i-XPS-120-Outdoor-Speakers/dp/B000X2B5U4/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1254791115&sr=1-6
Splash-proof and apparently pretty drop proof. The perfect iPod portable sailing tune provider. Rubber surround keeps it nicely glued to the deck while heeling. The sound is pretty darn good for a little 6x12 boombox.
For original $179… still pretty good. But for $59?? You can’t go wrong.
p.s. Oop, apparently out of stock now at Amazon... $99 at http://www.nextag.com/Hercules-i-XPS...43/prices-html

Had a nice sail south to Grand Haven a couple weeks ago and we were able to borrow an empty slip up the Grand River. Hung on for another week and had a couple last minute sails.
a) Headed out the Grand River for our last sail of the season. Sadie brought her snow suit along - it was pretty chilly
b) the sun blasted through overcast skies the moment we hoisted the genny
c) on the hard for another long winter's nap. Ug.

65* in mid-November! Out for a top-down ride with Sadie on Sunday - that's my in-law's '66. Required a stop by LD for a brief hello.
