Built in 2011, "Caesura" has been hanging in the rafters of the shed, unused, since 2018. Had to wash off a thick layer of bird and bat guano, sweep out mouse nests, and touch up a couple of nicks in the varnish.
She still looks pretty despite the neglect.
If all goes well, she'll get her feet wet again in a few days. Headed to St. Mikes to see old friends.

By Mark Strassman, Alex Sunby
