First raise the sail, tighten with the Down Haul, then adjust the Sprit with the Snotter.
Leave shore without hitting anything.
Tack, tack, tack out of Chinamans Creek.
Head up wind till you find a beach for lunch.
Remember that your boat weights 420kg/925lbs, wish you hadn't sailed up so hard on the beach.
Try to stay awake while boat sails itself home on a nice broad reach.
Turning downwind into Chinamans Creek boat gybes to wake you up.
Retun to port without hitting anything.
Tidy boat.
Take GPS home, plug into Google Earth and reminisce about voyage.
Condense 4 hrs of video into 3 minutes, upload to RU-vid.
music: "String Vibe Plastiyc" mix from album "Turntables on the Hudson" 2004

Nice little boat! I’ve been sailing a Phil Bolger Teal with a jib-headed spritsail for 35 years. Sweet, simple, and performs well. Thanks for the video!

Your Teal looks like you could be ready to sail in about 5 minutes. I hope I enjoy Tempo for 35 years. (only 25 more to go)

tilroh, One of the first things I did, some years back, was to sand the varnish off the mast, so, now, I get to put some fresh varnish on before we sail. That won’t take long!

you have a lovely sharpie! did you build her, and did she come from a particular design?

@tilroh 6 лет назад

I built her from Reuel Parker's "The Sharpie Book"

Who is building the Sharpies on the west coast of Florida? Im going to be moving from Bradenton down to Pine Island and would like to have a sailboat like this type for the shallow water there.
