This is a video blog about the work I have done and the fun I'm having on my Beneteau First 235, named Jackdaw. She is kept on Lake Harriet, in urban Minneapolis, Minnesota. Unlike the blog I keep for sailing there, This blog will be mostly be done via HD video. Be sure to watch the videos in HD if you have the CPU power and the bandwidth. Also, any image on the blog can be clicked on to view in hi-resolution. Let's see how it turns out.

Getting Her Name On
One of my last boat-readiness tasks this spring was to get Jackdaw's name on her. In the age of computer-cut vinyl lettering, there is no reason not to have your boat's name proudly emblazoned on her hull. Old-school hand painted lettering made boat lettering costly, but not any more. Read more and see how at the post on my companion blog Crusinglakeharriet. HERE
It’s not just “having this thing” that makes life worth living, I think, but more about the relationships we create with that specific thing. I think it’s interesting that you’ve named your boat Jackdaw. Jackdaws are one of few bird species that mate for life, meaning they’re monogamous. When a jackdaw finds a mate, they are together for the rest of their lives, which makes them very caring partners and family birds. I’m sure you share the same passion and dedication for your boat, which is why you named it after this bird.
