When the late fall winds start to blow from the Northwest I turn Sjogin around so the stove will draw. Also the late morning Winter sun can fill the cabin which makes it quite pleasant. No sailing last weekend, just ships work. Blew too hard Saturday and absolutely no wind Sunday. Sat by the stove finishing the new dock lines. I did go out the week before and took the usual photos.
Also an example of another little cottage in town that’s ripe for a teardown.
Finally a pic of Dave Sherman, a WoodenBoat Forum friend who came for a sail with me on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. After our sail he launched the kayak he built and headed out for a cruise in the local marsh.
Winter position, bow to the northeast. With the chimney on the lee side for a westerly breeze the stove will draw better.
Reaching for Swan Point on Thanksgiving weekend.
Here today, gone tomorrow. Tiny cottage on a lagoon that’s not long for this world.
Off to the marsh south of Beatons.
