New cabin sole

Rozinante's original teak and holly cabin sole was showing its age with the thin laminate peeling away and bare in some spots.

I used a product called PlasTeak to overlay the original sole and it turned out great!

New!

Sailing with the 'chute'

Had a great sail with good winds to fly the asymmetric.    Based on performance and dimensions, it appears it's the equivalent of an A3 gennaker.

Winds were about 15-20 knots and the boat was flying (~7kts).   Following that sail, I purchased sailing gloves :)
