Hi, Terry.

LOOOOOONG time.

The mizzen sheet is more than adequate. I had her with 40knots on the stern and if you pull in the mizzensheet tight you'll be ok.

How's my beloved ("Carpe Diem") "Bridget" doing ?

I'm sure you're keeping her in excellent shape.
Send some recent pics.

Best,
Bill Kranidis

Hi Bill. I guess it HAS been a long time, which the older I get seems to speed up!

Bridget is fine! I'll gather some shots and send them on to you.

The only reason I wondered about the backstays is that I noticed them in the specs, but like you both observe, not a necessary thing.

So, did you ever get your 40???
