More work on the Cal-25.
On board RAINBOW, I got the 6 HP O/B running nicely, then took it off to see how my older 3.5 HP motor would fit, e.g., whether or not the shaft was long enough to provide propulsion. Just barely and we'd need to put all weight in the back of the cockpit if we intended to go anywhere with the 3.5.
Then up to PSA to re-examine my placement of the line that runs fore and aft from pilings to separate the slip to my east from what is, to tell the truth, a slip that is barely big enough to accommodate a Cal-25.
But I got it done (again from a kayak) and I'm much happier with the arrangement. We'll bring the boat up on the first warm weekend (warm for February, that is) and pray it fits in OK.
