Hittin’ the Snooze Button

Kym and Armand Renga of Santa Barbara sent us this shot of their 14-year-old Brittany, Storm, doing what sailors have been excelling at for centuries: finding a cozy, out-of-the-way spot to catch a few winks. "We were aboard Charity — our 1962 wooden gaff-rigged ketch, designed by Billy Atkins and built by Alameda’s Dean Stephens — when we spotted something strange in our old mizzen," noted Kym. "There was Storm, totally asleep and rolled up in the sail — with no help from us!"

After an activity-filled weekend, a cozy spot like that looks mighty inviting right about now . . . .
