Getting Closer: Weekend of 9/26

Jim peels the tape off after we painted the new boot stripe. John Glaser and Jim Loomba Loomba has new stripes in a new color. With the sail cover on she's looking pretty good!

The mast is up!

Finishing touches to the masthead New antenna, horn, tricolor light, wind/depth/speed instrument and all new internal wire. A final cleaning while we can still reach it. The mast being lifted by the boom truck. Jim, Tom and Glenn Hartmann listening to instructions from the boom truck driver. Kathy Hartmann and Julien Arthur (the truck driver) Jim disconnecting the boom from the mast. Loomba-Loomba looks like a sailboat again.

Still in the Boat Yard
