MS110??

Yep, Red/White daysailers rule. The MS110 is a new event in September around the barrier islands off the Miss. coast. More of a camping trip than an endurance event. Should be a lot of fun. Here is the facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/groups/801912106567809/ Pehr from the TX200 group is sort of its leader. Also Jeadstx tells me I have several technical errors in my writeup, apologies, will have to double check my nav points. A few other points. I found two structural failures in "Tiny Dancer's" rigging yesterday. The original port spreader support bracket had two sheared rivets. I had originally replaced the starboard bracket and it showed no signs of failure. Also the jib halyard turning block on the mast had sheared all four rivets and was just clinging to the mast by 'friction' I guess. So as part of this teardown "ALL original rivets will be replaced. Apparently I had pushed "Tiny Dancer" as hard as I pushed myself. She still took good care of me.

Minor technical things. Still a good write up.
