In all my excitement to get back to work on the boat, I forgot to tell the big news. The sails I ordered from Jeckells are ready for shipping! I ordered them and paid the deposit middle of October. Jeckells had committed to having the order filled by February but to my delight I received a notice that the sails were ready to ship. One more step in the right direction and one more charge against the VISA. So far not too bad. I've been acquiring other user items for the boat and when I updated my cost to date spreadsheet it totalled $7726.58 which includes $2k for the main and jib from Jeckells. I need to keep at building so I can launch in June.
