Sail update...

Sail packages should arrive on the 15th!  I'm super excited.  While this will be one of the biggest projects, and certainly with the sewing, the one that I am least familiar with, I think its going to be pretty fun.

Plus, its a large project... the physically largest creation project for the boat, and probably about as complex.  Completing this will move my completion schedule along smartly.  I'm trying to have it complete and tested by the first week of June, the annual Man-folk Fishing Getaway for our family.

I've started looking for a mast.  I need a 15 foot aluminum or wooden pole of sufficient strength.  I may go with a laminated spruce 2x4 approach that they talk about on The Wooden Boat Forums.
