[Rhodes22-list] Oooooo my first storm damage!

[Michael D. Weisner]

It is for similar reasons that I bungee the furled Genoa. It spilled out one time and was able to lift my 250 lb. mooring!

As far as I can tell, Scott, thanks! I wasn't able to do any inspection under the conditions.  But it spooled back into the mast with seemingly no problem.  I'll go out tomorrow or Saturday (when the gale force advisory with 8-15ft waves off shore calms down) and assess any other issues.  Thats lakeMI for ya....
