What an exciting Labor Day weekend; one of the best in years! Last week we launched s/v Coming About so we would have a place to sleep. What a great decision. </div>

Evelyn brought her friend out to the lake and they when sailing on the Sunfish to explore areas around the lake. She wanted me to go sailing with her and I said 'no' knowing they would be fine. Even so, I worried each time they went out. Turned out they had no issues and a lot of fun!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Campfires brought unexpected new friends as we bonded with an experienced Hobie Cat sailor with Parkinson's. He was still sailing and planned to enter the Sunfish Masters Regatta. He was going to rent a club boat but Marla offered her Sunfish to use. This was his first time on a Sunfish and I helped him learn the basics of the boat and he spend the afternoon sailing around. I also raced in the regatta and ended up placing third. This was my first race of any kind and was the most work I've ever done sailing... even times when we had heavier wind and waves. Something about racing just amps up everything!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Family was out at the lake as well. Marla's brother camped all weekend and my brother and his family came out an enjoyed sailing with us on Sunday. The fireworks that evening didn't disappoint either.</div>

<b>WE ARE IN THE WATER!!!!</b></h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Marla and I decided to just go out to the lake and put the boat in the water ourselves. I was not gifted with the super power known as 'backing up a trailer'. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We were not going to put the boat in the water. The flood, other stuff interfering with our schedule, and little motivation on my end kept the boat dry. But dang it! Fall is the best time for sailing! Plus we couldn't find a campsite for Labor Day weekend either.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's going to be great this Fall!</div>

I decided to take a Friday off and head out to the lake to help with new buoys to keep swimmers and sailors safe for the Labor Day weekend.<br />

That is question often asked now that the flood waters have receded. Honestly I just haven't been motivated to put it in. Sailing on the Sunfish has been fun but admittedly we haven't been out as much as I would have liked.</div>

We headed out around 8am as rain and storms approached the lake. It rained off and on for a couple hours but we setup the boats anyway knowing it would stop. I fixed the broken end cap and tried to add a cleat the mast but I messed that up. Something to fix later.<br />

Mark and I headed out for our first sail. We didn't set any speed records. Wind was light and variable so it was a good start to the day.<br />

We headed out for our second sail which turned into an exciting journey across the lake. Wind and waves continued to build but the boats handled well and were dialed in just about perfect. We explored the far cove zig zagging our way around. Our average speeds were up and we hit 10.5 knots on the way back!<br />

We ended the day with a third sail. Fairly quick pace. The downwind leg at the end was gnarly as we sailed down waves plowing the bow into and under the water. The constant threat of an unintended jibe kept us on our toes. A good end to the day!<br />

All in all the boats handled well and we managed to keep from capsizing! We didn't stay dry... the waves were crazy today.<br />
<br />
The lake levels were down from last week. A little more parking lot and beach were showing.<br />

The beach at Sailboat Cove is returning. We're parked under the trees but at least it's there now.<br />
<br />
It was a fun day sailing. Marla is enjoying her boat. While out just as it was getting interesting my the end cap on the boom broke causing my sail to flap around. I immediately started back to the cove hoping to avoid tearing some of the grommets out of the sail. Even crippled I managed 6 knots headed back.<br />
<br />
Interested to discover that the old end cap was made from wood!<br />

It was a fun day of sailing.<br />

The flooding has taken a toll on the trees. The old giant fell over. Many of the newly planted trees are not fairing well either.Doug Perryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00255060289186953642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3531140651826242099.post-53191286229319956162019-06-09T07:35:00.001-05:002019-06-09T11:53:35.152-05:00First Sail 2019The lake levels are going down and we took the opportunity to sail for the first time this year.<br />
<br />
Marla got her Sunfish out and it was great having a boat for each of us now to go exploring. Marla's brother had his two Sunfish out sailing as well. Not a bad day at all... except I'm tired and sore this morning!<br />
<br />
The lake is still flooded and we launched near a campsite which recently had been flooded. The 'shoreline' was probably 30-50 yards closer than normal. It was a stinky and sloppy mess. Can't wait for the lake levels to recede more so we can have Sailboat Cove back to normal with the nice beach.<br />
<br />
Our S2 is still out of the water. I don't expect to launch it until late June when the lake levels are down more.<br />

The lake shot up to a record 9 feet above the normal pool level. We were not able to get our boat in the water and it was probably good. The lake is so high the jetty protecting the cove and docks were underwater. Thankfully the wind is staying southerly which keeps the wave from bouncing the docks around. The clubhouse basement is full of water. It will be a huge clean up around the grounds when the water goes away.<br />
<br />
We watched from the house the water rising hoping our boats were fine. Ultimately the water rose about 18 inches to the trailer so the boats were not floating. The first photos emailed me caused a little concern as I saw my storage box had floated away and the ends of the Sunfish sails had been in the water.<br />
<br />
The levels finally started going down and yesterday we finally made it out to the lake to assess the impact. The road is still closed because of flooding in one small section so we walked in. Thankfully the sails were not muddy, just wet in sections so we laid them out to dry. Got lucky. I thought we would have to remove the sails and bring them home. They are on the deck of the big boat now incase more rain returns and the lake goes back up.<br />
<br />
No sailing for a couple of weeks. The big boat probably won't make it into the water until late June.<br />

We had a fun Saturday exploring a new part of Kansas: Kanopolis Lake. Started out at Mushroom Rock State Park and continued exploring the lake checking out the various campsite options and hiking a few trails.</div>
<div style="caret-color: rgb(28, 30, 33); color: #1c1e21; display: inline; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-top: 6px;">
Kanopolis has 30+ miles of hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails and we only experienced a fraction this amazing place. We are looking forward to returning later this year for an extended camping and hiking adventure.</div>

Wading in 4+ feet of 60 degree water to the dock is not my idea of fun. I did manage to find a canoe and paddled to check on the boat. Water is being released at the dam but it might be a couple of weeks before the levels lower to a manageable level.<br />

Up Close and Personal!<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: , , "blinkmacsystemfont" , ".sfnstext-regular" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Warning!

</span> <span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: , , "blinkmacsystemfont" , ".sfnstext-regular" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">We headed out to the lake for some sailing but there wasn't much wind. While walking along the jetty we saw in the distance pelicans resting on the west shore. We hopped in the car and drove north as far as we could and walked the rest of the way to the pelicans. We spent about an hour slowly approaching and enjoying these great birds.</span><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: , , "blinkmacsystemfont" , ".sfnstext-regular" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> </span><br />

Spent almost six hours today sailing around the lake. We explored the southern part, the central part, and headed all the way north today! We don't get up that far very often.<br />
<br />
Fall is our favorite time of the year for sailing. It's going to be great this season!<br />

I have a new app for my Apple Watch called <a href="http://www.workoutdoors.net/" target="_blank"><b>WorkOutdoors</b></a>. I really like the way it tracks our sails and heart rate as well. Marla questions if I was really excreting as well. I ended up with 368 minutes and burned 2000 calories. Yea, I don't think I did that good today. Maybe if I was on the Sunfish I would say "yea, I earned all those calories!"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also not sure that we got up to 7.2 knots of speed. We did experiment with different sail trims and the boat seemed to sail a lot better so maybe during some wind gusts we did hit those speeds briefly.</div>

Marla, Daddy Daughter & Full Moon SailsI took Friday off from work and went sailing! First was work. The boat was grimy and dirty with mildew and gunk. Two hours later s/v Coming About was clean. The boat does need a good polish and wax but that will have to wait until Spring 2019.<br />

Marla made it out to the lake after her morning shift and we went for a sail. It was blowing in the 20s so we just went out on a reefed main.<br />

Marla had to go back to work for the afternoon so I did some more work around the boat. Our jib sail needed tell-tails. Installed 3 sets.<br />

Marla was going to come back out to the lake in the evening with Evelyn. I decided to head back in to town and picked up Evelyn after school instead so we could go sailing together while Marla was at work. We headed back out to the lake and put the Sunfish in the water. She's learning to rig her new boat. The mast cleat is a new procedure for both of us. I still helped, but she's getting better at rigging the boat on her own.<br />

Marla made it back and brought dinner to us as well. Her brother was at the lake and after dinner we went on an evening sail to watch the sun set and the full moon rise. It was an amazing evening of perfect weather and sailing with family.<br />

Marla and Evelyn headed out on the Sunfish along with Mark. Being short an extra Sunfish I decided to head out on s/v Coming About. The four boats sailed circles around me as we meandered across the lake. The winds eventually died out and I ended up towing Marla and Evelyn back to the cove.<div>

<div>
Just a quick 4 hours at the lake today. Tomorrow is rain all day. Friday I'm taking off to sail all day with my brother-in-laws!</div>

Spent Saturday morning and all day Sunday sailing our Sunfish. Sunday, my brother-in-laws brought their boats out. Unfortunately the wind was light. Even so the glassy waters made for some neat photos! </div>

Evelyn is enjoying her blue Sunfish. I do think I'll replace the rudder with the new style in the Spring. The old style works fine but it just isn't as convenient when beaching the boat. Also storing the rudder takes up more room because it doesn't fold up like the newer style rudders do.</div>

I took my grandson James out for his first sail. Super light winds in the cove but we did some low speed tacks and jibes. He seemed content and didn't try to get out of the boat. Looking forward to watching him grow into sailing.<br />

Evelyn's Sunfish needs some work on the bottom and sides. There are several patches done over the years and the white patches just didn't look good. As a temporary fix, I found some spray paint that was a close match and sprayed the patches. I know what you're thinking. Spray paint!? Yes. I'll work on it properly next spring. Doesn't look too bad though... from 15 feet back at 5 knots!<br />

Marla and Evelyn took the Sunfish outside the cove to the main lake. I took our big boat out and sailed along with them. This has been something I've wanted to do for some time now. There wasn't a lot of wind.<br />

It wasn't much to look at but there was something special hiding under all that grime. The hull weighed in at 140lbs. Not bad for a 52 year old boat. Because of the weight I'm avoiding adding any inspection ports for now. I did add a drain plug to the stern. Peaking inside, the foam I could see was really clean.</div>

The gelcoat on the deck is dull and didn't polish out very well. It will probably need painting eventually. However, Evelyn likes it and says it looks like clouds. The hull needs sanded and painted for sure. Hey, the boat is 52 years old!</div>

It started off with the Church Family Camp. We discovered our Sunfish mast was missing. Luckily Marla's bother had a spare we borrowed. Sunfish masts are expensive to replace! I was fortunate enough to find a used one at a boat dealership in Lawrence, Kansas.<br />
<br />
Evelyn took the Sunfish out for the first time this year. Little did she know a blue Sunfish would be in her future...<br />

<br />
After a long week at work we decided to head out for an evening sail. We've never had the boat in the water this early in the season. While we didn't get out very much since March's launch, it was still worth it to have the opportunities this year.<br />

Then a cold snap hit. Time for cold weather sailing. We just bundle up really well and head out to find Pelicans!<br />
<br />
It's feels good to be in the water so early this season!<br />

This season there wasn't a lot we needed to work on to get ready for launch. The swing daggerboard did need attention. After grinding, painting, and watching paint dry we got s/v Coming About in the water. This is the earliest since we've owned the boat. Fun sailing season ahead!</div>

Usually the boat has come out early November every year. We debated keeping it in all winter but decided to pull it before the docks and harbor iced in.<br />
<br />
Our goal is to launch in March!<br />
