One amazing aspect of PSA membership are their twice-a-year Work Party Days.   This year's Spring Work Party is a prefect example, whereby 60-70 members show up, complete with every known tool in the universe, to GET STUFF DONE!

And it's also a lot of fun.

Stuff that got done was:  a new floating dock to accomodate more dighnys and create space for PSA's small boat racing program, all the mooring pennants were installed, boats were moved on to their moorings for this season, the porch winter enclosure was removed and a general clean-up of the grounds, landscaping and leaf removal.  DONE.

I got a chance to spend a little time moving two boats out to their spots, as the breeze continued to build and the skies grew uglier by the minute.  Finally it was decided to throw in the towel with most of the work done and puffs in the 20s showing up.

We used a member's duck boat to move boats, including a heavy Tartan 34, which was the right tool, no doubt about it.
