Snatching a bit of wind here and there ...

We're making a concerted effort to get on the water this winter.  We sailed over to Pelican Bay for a night a week ago, celebrating the end of February, and this coming Monday and Tuesday we're going out for a night to celebrate the beginning of March.  If the weather and we don't allow our land life to interfere, we're planning 3-4 days staring March 16th and then the 21st through the 25th. So, we've been slipping down to the Alizee whenever convenient to do some cleaning and a few little maintenance chores, such as patching a couple of leaks in the dinghy, sealing the cap-rail teak, etc.
