I wanted to do some work in the V-berth but just as I had the multimeter in hand I looked forward and noticed this web across the main bulkheads and paused. This spider worked its butt off to make this work of art. There are still a lot of flying insects below deak. So is it really necessary to destroy it just to take a few voltage readings far forward? I opted to save it for later.
Inc had just splashed in the morning and there was a ton of running rigging to install. Got it all done by 4:30 or so and went out for our first race in 2026. Lovely night and I think we did OK (results not up yet). Considering this was the first time out and just within an hour or two of installing an array of systems, we made few mistakes and everything seemed to work OK.
