http://windborneinpugetsound.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Windborne in Puget Sound. Life aboard s/v Eolian. Monday, April 27, 2015. A couple of posts back I talked. About getting some color-matched gelcoat from Fiberlay.

But the color match is absolutely perfect! Huge kudos to Fiberlay. For a match well made! Posted by Robert Salnick. Monday, April 20, 2015. First, at home I cut and trimmed the ...

Windborne in Puget Sound. Life aboard s/v Eolian. Monday, July 20, 2015. Transitioning to retirement is not an event. it is a process. And at this stage of the process, we have discovered that our previous usage patterns for the boat have changed. We have settled (for now, at least) on two weeks because of a couple of things. First, garbage. Regular readers of this blog may remember that I have mentioned before that our limiting capacity on Eolian. So, is this better? Posted by Robert Salnick. 2 The shoa...

Windborne in Puget Sound. Life aboard s/v Eolian. Wednesday, August 27, 2014. The Curve of Time, Revisited. Think back. Do you remember the third grade?

Are still stuck in my head from that experience. And it was. An experience. it was much more than the story alone. Several years ago (have I been blogging that long? The Curve of Time. Now put...

Windborne in Puget Sound: Surveying
http://windborneinpugetsound.blogspot.com/2015/07/surveying.html
Windborne in Puget Sound. Life aboard s/v Eolian. Friday, July 10, 2015. So today I spent a little while in the dinghy with my new depth sounder. Taking measurements. All of the readings in the picture above are ones I made. Since I am crowd sourcing this data, I made sure that it was corrected for the tide before adding it to the chart. Three things were learned:. 1 There is adequate water off that private dock should we need to tie to it in an emergency. More surveying to come. Posted by Robert Salnick.

Windborne in Puget Sound. Life aboard s/v Eolian. Monday, August 31, 2015. You're at a quiet anchorage in late summer. There is a slight breeze - just enough to keep you comfortably cool.
