We went out after making repairs to the trampolines with buckles we bought from West Marine (see the following post for details: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=29205). 17+ total miles and a top speed of 5.8 mph. Note that we also have the new paddle in place as well.

Also meant to add that we practiced man-overboard drills using one of our floating Stearns seat cushions. I was able to have the cushion back on board in less than a minute, while under full sail in a fresh breeze. Cindy did it even faster by simply cutting the sail loose and going back to the cushion with the Mirage Drive - sure wiped that smug smile off my face!

Well done on saving the cushion Mitch - and even better Cindy! :lol:
