Oriental, NC

 More sewing.....slow but steady progress.  I constructed the long zipper panel.  I made it in two pieces, different from the normal zipper-placard.  In this case, I want extra material hanging over the zipper to protect it from the harsh sun.

 

Then we zipped it together to mark it for the final cuts.  It will be much wider at the mast, tapering down at the stern since the sail is much less volume at the back.  Progress seems slow but I'm measuring multiple times and interrupting Duane often for advice and 2nd opinions!


And speaking of Duane - he's busy with the Starlink install!!  He's getting the mount ready for our Dishy!
