On The Road

Here we are, loaded up with "his and hers" on a rack I built for the truck to haul two boats. This is just the prototype. I had to construct something that would hold both boats in a way that our aging, out of shape bodies could lift them into place. I needed to make sure the masts cleared the top of the truck cab. The first design works very well. We can easily lift the boats into place. From the water it takes less than fifteen minutes before we are back on the road ready to go home. Not that I'm ever in any kind of hurry to get home after a day of sailing. This winter I'll get some nice lumber and build the same rack so it looks presentable.
