Bowsprit work required

Now that it's time to head back to Kolibrie, we're thinking of the work ahead. This last season our bowsprit took quite a beating. It looks like the sprit needs work/replacing. The platform looks fine but we're concerned about the integrity of the sprit. I love standing on the bowsprit shooting pictures of those amazing dolphins as they swim along with us and race with us (yah I know no contest - Kolibrie is just so speedy). I don't think I've ever really posted pictures of the sprit. That might come in handy to have so people know what part of the boat I'm talking about. Here's 3 views - top, side, bottom.

Then of course there's new bottom paint, inside work (a lot) and we're ready to go!!! :)
