My new to me mast

I got a replacement for my 24' mast that hit the ice last year. My replacement is a 23.5' mast that is 10" wide (a couple inches wider than the 24' mast).  Now I have a couple of weekends of sanding, painting and rigging before it is ready to go.  I should be able to move my hogstays from the old to the new and I have a set of stays that should fit.  The rest of the hardware should transfer without to much pain.  The big challenge will be sourcing a mast step for the boat.

Calendar for 2010 Season

Here is a calendar for the regatta's for the 2010 campaign.  This calendar is public and can be added into your favorite calendaring application.  I will work to keep this updated as the dates for the regattas change so use the links below the calendar to add the dates into your calendar and the regattas should refresh to new dates when they change.  And good luck to everyone on the ice this year.

Ago Sensim, Navigo Velox...


Here are the links to the different calendar types.
