Launching 2015

Yesterday I launch Sasha in Den Oever Marina. The sailing season is officially open :)

Last works before launching.

I checked and fixed where necessary hull to deck join, placed new toe rails, and Sasha got new one component urethane paint :)

Standing rig replacement

I decided to replace the standing rig, because at the end of the season 2014 some of the wires started breaking. I used the following configuration:

4x  Lower shrouds stainless steel  1x19, 4 mm.
2x Shrouds stainless steel  1x19, 4 mm.
2x Backstay stainless steel 1x19, 5 mm.
1x Forestay stainless steel 1x19, 5 mm.

New bow tip and anchor roll

Just got a new bow metal tip, with anchor roll :) In this way I have a possibility to keep the anchor on the roll, which creates more room for the future instalation of the roll Genoa.
