We let Stardust rest at our slip for several days to let her settle into the water after being in a cradle for 18+ years. There were many chores and tasks to ready her for sailing, so we were kept pretty busy between launch on June 29 and first SAIL on July 4.

| David varnished the swim ladder steps this winter and they look great |
 |
| I made new pulls (thanks for lending me your hot knife, Dave!) |
 |
| Some new lines, some original |
 |
| We hauled David up to the spreaders to fix a little hidedral angle. |
 |
| And just after 3 p.m. we hoisted the sails for the first time! |
 |
Happy to have Bob and Jodi along for the first sail!
|
 |
| We sailed into West Bay before the wind died down. |
 |
| It was 93*F at the dock and much nicer out on the water. |
 |
A very happy captain :)
|
 |
| Not a common sight in this neck of the woods! |
 |
| Heading back to our slip at the end of the day. |
