7 July's raft up

On 7 July we went overnight on the boat for the first time. We met in an excellent little cove and tied up to Rettsie and Ceol na Mara. Very cool. We watched the sun go down, drank some Painkillers, and ate a good hot dinner (an impromptu potlock on Rettsie - Jack BBQed, we had pasta and home made sauce, and Kevin and Loretta had the rest).

On a nearby raft were That's All!, Njord, and Wild Blue.



The 'Wing is lookin good here!

This boat came into the cove, cruised around for a second and then dropped anchor to our north. The old salt in command promptly went below and we didn't see him again until lunch the following day. Great old boat!

note the absence of a stern rail, bow rail, or lifelines on the Redwing. In the next pics you will see all three!

I would love more details about bending stainless tubing for a pulpit. I want to give this a try. Thanks.
