s/v Mise En Place, Dickerson 41 ketch
Lewes, DE - Chesapeake City, MD
January 29, 2008

My friend Mark Steele has been restoring a Dickerson 41 for the last few years. Mark and
his family plan to sail to Europe when they are ready. Mark, his friend, Bob Hyberg,
Michele, and I helped him move the boat to Chesapeake City, MD on its way to the
Chesapeake Bay.

Sunrise on the Delaware Bay. Michele, Bob and Mark.

Mark trailing me as I go aloft to free a jammed halyard. We are on the C&D Canal and the
St. George's Bridge is in the background.

Once aloft I found that the eye splice in the working end of the main halyard was too thick
for the sheave. I was able to pry it out and drop the sail.

Dousing sail from aloft.
