Moved on to the more complicated project: mainsail cover. The Sailrite kit and the video were very useful. Took a bit of time with some mistakes and learnings but overall it came out great.
Sewing tiller cover
My second sewing project turned out much better.
Sewing winch covers
With a kit from Sailrite, I’ve made 4 winch covers with chokers. My first ever sewing project! Turned out OK… with a few mistakes
Teak plugs
Made some teak plugs from old trim and covered screw holes in the cabinet bases and companionway trim.
Lazy jacks rigged
Hatch is gone
The bow hatch has been blown off the boat so now we need to figure out a replacement. In the meantime, covered it up with turtle shell to shelter from coming rain.
Installing bases for drawers
Main sail is up
Rigged the mainsheet, installed boom hardware for reefing lines and lazy jacks, installed battens, and put up the mainsail to take measurements for the sail cover. Can’t wait to test it out on the water!
A few bulkheads installed
New support post in place
After tons of work making it, finishing it, and refinishing it, the new post is finally in place. Looks and feels awesome!
