New Year's day regatta

Here in Oriental, we have an "Instead of Football Regatta".
It is a great tradition.  I think this year was the 27th annual.
Great conditions and lots of boats of all sizes.

I was unhappy with the block type I had on hand for the turn in the cable near the stern.  It was the type that feeds through a wall.  It would be good for running a line under a deck.  We want the cable exposed inside the cockpit.  So, I stopped at Marine Consignment in town and found two perfect Schaefer blocks.  They will work well.
Marine Consignment is always fun to poke around in.  It is somewhat chaotic but there are aisles of great boat parts and great books.
