Spaghetti Patch

By Richard | October 31, 2012 | San Diego |

Most boats lose a little speed as they age. It might be older sails, but often times it’s the amount of stuff that collects onboard. As we were getting Profligate ready to set sail on the 19th Baja Ha-Ha, we decided to see if we had any lines we no longer needed. Crewmember Fin Beven stands over the excess that was found. Wow, where did it all come from? Heavy, too.
