 Once I raised the new mast and hung the sail, I decided that I wanted to build an aft deck.

I had a lot of fun over at my buddies place going through the bush finding  peeling, and shaping my battens and mast. You can never have too many friends.

I decided to extend a bit of an aft deck and put up a tarp for the winter but unless we get a nice warm day it will wait for spring for paint

I moved from the prairie about ten years ago and fell in love with the ocean. I bought a 14' glass sailboat and the book sailing for dummies.
