Madsu’s New Navigation Lights

April 21, 2010 Robert

Catalina 22’s of Madsu’s vintage had very awkwardly sighted navigation lights. The bow light is actually behind the forestay and stem head fitting – not the best for visiblity.  And if I happen to have dropped the foresail on the deck, the light would usually get covered up. (See if you can even find the … Continue reading Madsu’s New Navigation Lights →

Flaked all of Madsu’s sail, in the closet ’til spring. Ditto all the below decks and cockpit cushions. A lot of stuff in that little boat.

Madsu Gets a Website

May 26, 2009 Robert

My little sailboat Madsu, along with being a fine little pocket cruiser, is also base for a lot of the photographs I take in the summer. I’ve been posting them to Flickr and on the blog here, but for some time I’ve been meaning to set-up a website focused on Madsu. Today I finally got … Continue reading Madsu Gets a Website →

Madsu Masthead

April 28, 2008 Robert

A lot of rain kept me from getting top coat on Madsu’s spars today. So I turned my attention to the masthead, where I’m adding an anchor light and a windvane. Since I was installing a post for the light, which means tapping 2 holes in the mast head, I figured there must be a … Continue reading Madsu Masthead →

Madsu’s mast

April 25, 2008 Robert 1 Comment

With the boom primed and ready for topcoat, I’v opted to prep the mast so I can paint both spars together. With the experience of working on the boom under my belt, things are going much quicker on the mast. Madsu’s stick is 25 feet 2 inches long. After filling some old screw holes I … Continue reading Madsu’s mast →

Madsu Boom Mod

April 17, 2008 Robert 1 Comment

I’m getting set to paint the mast and boom on Madsu before putting her in the water this year. But before I get there, I’ve got a few modifications to make, so I’ve commandeered the picnic table and set up for some serious mucking-about-time. I started with the boom, stripping all the hardware so I … Continue reading Madsu Boom Mod →
