Used a dowl as a mast. I just put it where it looked right. and used a cut up sheet for a sail. I u...

I think I'm going to add a roller to the front of my trailer to help push up the bow, I've had some problems getting it back on the trailer, I've noticed that the one thats up front is not even touching the Bottom. so I'll adjust it up, and install another one farther up to help align and lift the b...
