Förberedelser

 installed single line reefing this summer with 2 refing points, works great... all lines in cockpit. therse also a third reef point in the sail, jacklines already there. I have tiller pilot. we could set it up so the tiller pilot gives the impulse to the vindvane... might be a solution for high waves. Outboard mount is there. mast system is easy but it would be nice to have a panneble searchlight halfway up the mast. 

My biggest conserns about the boat is the bowspread and bob stay so close to the waterline with risk of hitting ice.

The second is the weight of 80 gallons of diesel + heavey equipment below deck. The weitghtpoint of the boat moves higher and the strain that it will have on the mast and stays.

Third is the motor. Yesterday it way - 5 degrees C and i couldent get the enginge to start even thoe it has a coldstartfunction. Risk is that we have to heat the motorspace as well resulting in a lot higher dieselconsumption.

Mayby we have to bring C4 ;)
