Calção Crio

Here's a glimpse of the upcoming build series of my new tender to Flying Spur! The mast sections are mated together by an inner-ring of epoxied carbon fiber tape The sail was cut from tanbark cloth by Sailrite. I assembled everything from there I decided to use a mast track instead of the common "zippered sleeve" for reasons of simplicity and durability. A small shim was used to "ramp" the track between the different-sized mast poles, and it glides really well. Music: "The Bottom of The Ocean" by Matt Garver

*READ CAPTION* We were travelling through country SA when we drove past a dead kangaroo (not unusual for this part of the world), it looked like it had been hit fairly recently, given the bright red blood on the road, so we turned around and checked the pouch. To our surprise, there was a (what seemed to be) uninjured, but likely in shock, baby Joey in the pouch. This is the first Joey we’ve come across so we weren’t entirely sure what to do, we thought it was best to wrap him in a towel (to act like a warm pouch) and find someone to help care for him. Unfortunately, we didn’t have any phone reception to contact anyone, so we drove 45 minutes to a visitor centre in the nearest town. Thankfully the lovely ladies knew exactly who to call and within 30 minutes we had taken the baby Joey to his new home. The wildlife carer who took in this new orphan had 4 other babies that she was caring for, each one needing fed 4 times per day with special marsupial milk and each having their own home made pouch. Joeys can be the size of a mandarin or a small puppy so make sure to have a good look within the pouch. If the Joey is attached to the tit don’t pull it off as it can damage it’s jaw, instead remove the tit. Moral of the story is, if you see a dead kangaroo on the road please please (safely) stop and check the pouch as you might find a tiny orphan looking for its new home.

Downwind speed at 8.5 knots sounds and feels so good. ⛵️
