Building Grace: Prep for Saltwater, New Boat Lift, Possible SV Seeker Visit
1 year ago
31
Although my sailing kayak Nomad has spent alot of time in saltwater, the sailing rowboat Grace has only been in freshwater so far.
Like so many of you, I continue to follow Doug Jackson's SV Seeker as he's anchored off Pirate's Cove, on the Alabama gulf coast, and have been looking for a chance to take the drive down and Sail w/ Seeker.
That would mean saltwater, and there is some work to do on the boat and rig...which gives me a chance to explain the new lift system I added in our new shop.
The fabrication of the main cleat is one of the early adjustments after the initial launch of the boat, in this video:

Here's the video of making the previous lift system at our old place:
