Tall rig !

Went looking for Comanche  today and found her moored at Aloha Tower.  She doesn't look so big here, but have a look at her mast!  Turns out she's docked here instead of Ala Wai, due to the depth of her keel, not her length (100 feet).  When she leaves here, she'll be sailed down to Brisbane, Australia, which is why they were off-loading the "new" (racing) sails & gear.   Took a winch and about 6 guys to move a sail bag.   Imagine changing sails in the middle of a race!   "Old" sails are good enuf when cruising.

EXTRA is the  PEACE BOAT is visiting again.   We had a friend from Japan come through on its last trip.   The link explains their voyaging.
