Our Sailing Hideaway Blog and YouTube videos will remain active. Join the HideAways as we tell, through blog stories and videos, what life really is like on a small, 23' Com Pac sailboat. We'll show the joys, thrills and chills of the sailing life, but also what it takes to maintain a boat, trailer and truck. You are just as likely to learn how not to do something correctly as to do it right. That's important too! New! The Hideaways take to the road! Follow Traveling Hideaway: Winds of Wanderlust Transitioning from Sailing Hideaway to Traveling Hideaways as sailors learn to travel without heeling, well, not much, anyway. The Paint Wasters Society unlocks the art of paint squandering with sheer delight, free from the shackles of remorse or guilt. Trust me, a century down the line, nobody's going to bat an eyelash, so why not indulge in some paint splattering shenanigans today? Let's turn those pricey pigments into a canvas of laughter and joy.

Of Chain Saws, Navigation Tools and Sailing HideAway

"Betcha you're too chicken to see if that chain saw blade is sharp" said the thumb to the forefinger.   "Ha! You think think I'm that stupid?" the forefinger retorted.  "Well I can't 'cause I'm too short" The thumb replied.  "Besides that chain saw is four years old so the chain can't be that sharp - You're just too much of a wiener to try!"

OWWW!


When a day starts like that how can it get any better?  Well, for starters, after weeks of fruitless searching we found our lost navigation tools hiding in a brief case along side a desk.  I was not looking forward to replacing my new dividers and parallel rule that's for sure!



A brief case?  Really on a Compac 23?  No wonder the nav tools found a hiding place!

At last we can start editing our latest video.  Look for A Pine Island Plan coming  soon to a Utube channel near you.
