I wanted to update everyone, I took "Enfin" out for a first sail this weekend after rescuing her from a mud puddle 2 years ago. She has been given many names, from Miracle to Suzanne, but we decided on "Enfin" which is french for "at last." This is the name the boat came with. We are having a re-christening party this coming weekend. "Enfin" sailed fantastic and we had only a few slight tuning modifacations to make. I learned a valuable lesson. I added turnbuckles so that I would have more adjustment to the rig, and I learned that when trailering the boat, remove them or they will fall off, which is an expensive lesson!!! I will be sending pictures soon. Eric J. Nelson
