Boat work, then wait

Today I cut a new cassette to decrease the AoA of my mainfoil, an attempt to solve my problem of the boat jumping out of the water (visions of D. Lord!). I also cut 4 inches off the boom, reinstalled the foam in the tramps, and made sure the cable attachment was sound. Hoping for an evening sail I was only confounded by the weather. Norfolk is in the center of the image below; appropriately the only part of the city's name you can see is "NO."



Here are The Doors



Riders on the Storm, by Jim Morrison, Robby Krieger, Ray Manzarek, and John Densmore (1970)

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we’re born
Into this world we’re thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm

There’s a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin’ like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If ya give this man a ride
Sweet memory will die
Killer on the road, yeah

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

Wow!

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house were born
Into this world were thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
