Title: Stretch Ariel 45 back in the water
Post by: Stephan on May 16, 2010, 10:48:09 AM
Hi guys,

finally back in the water, and here is proof of her Alberg lines. Just another Ariel, really, just elongated... :o
Can't wait for the weather to get really comfortable here in Chicago and sail the heck out of her.

Greetings to all of you,
Stephan

Title: Duck Nest
Post by: Stephan on June 10, 2010, 01:14:42 PM
I guess I've been away from my boat too long - after a week absence yesterday evening I discovered a duck nest in my cockpit. Mother duck had coiled some rope and laid three eggs already. She had apparently fled when I approached with my dinghy (I live on a can, not a dock), and I was a little worried her eggs were doomed. However, this morning I was woken up by 'my' duck making a fuss over the eggs, rearranging them and in the process clicking them on the cockpit seat. When I got out to look there was a fourth egg...
I wonder how they taste

Good luck on all fronts.
Hope the ducklings did not delay your sailing.
Or if they did,
I'd be interested to know how mamaa ducks fed her fledglings?
And post some fotos of your new crew.  OK?

I'm jealous of your Stretch.....!
