It has been a long road, but my wife and I were finally able to go sailing on our Prindle 19 this weekend! My dad and I rescued it from years of neglect in a mini-storage lot in VA, and it has found its new home at Keowee Sailing Club in Seneca, SC. The boat is quite a handfull, but I'm sure it will be rewarding as the water warms up and we're more confident in flying a hull. For now, here are a couple photos:

I actually have my doubts about that main. it is completely wrinkled up. is it hoisted completely? on the hook?

That's the MX main, right?? The top batten is supposed to stick above the mast head--looks like it isn't raised enough? -

My sail has wrinkles like those when there is more down hall tension than main sheet tension.
