A few more pics
Here are a couple more shots of the first float take by my friend Dave. Much better than my pics.

Prep for Launch
No pics to post today. I'm getting lots of little bits ironed-out in preparation for launching this Saturday. It's amazing how many little things accumulate toward the end of a project like this. Nevertheless, if all goes well, GoodFoot sails this weekend! So far I have had good luck uploading pics and video from my phone straight to the blog, so look for semi-live updates. I also, have the new GoPro camera so there should be some decent video posted late in the day.
Cheers

It Floats!
Today was the day to register and title the boat, which required a trip to Garland about an hour away. So since I was in the neighborhood, my friend David invited me to stop by Rush Creek Yacht Club where we gave Goodfoot her first dunk. Without any crew weight or spars on board, she sat very high on her lines. In fact the chines were fully out of the water. Very encouraging.
