SV Ramble On | Repairing Our Bowsprit

After 6 years one of the cross braces on the bowsprit started to crack. We're not exactly sure why, but it seems to be a combination of the grain of the brace and that it appears to have been attacked by fungus and maybe the torque/pressure from the new anchor and windlass.

I’m Jeni and he’s Rich. We’re really just a couple of average Joes. In a nutshell we met and married in our early 20s; I graduated from college in my late 20s; adopted two cats and a dog in the late 90s; sold a house and bought a new house in our mid 30s; then sold the new house and moved onto a sailboat in our early 40s. In between all that we had a bunch of fun like camping, scuba diving, watching hockey games (Go Red Wings!), concerts, traveling, spear fishing, restoring a 1963 Chevy II Nova; spending time with family and friends. A few years ago we decided to lay off all the fun-having to fix up this old boat. We figure if we put our noses to the grindstone for a few years, we’ll be able to travel for a few years and do all the fun things we’ve missed. Thanks for joining us. I hope you find something useful and hopefully a little entertaining.
