		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s time to tuck Whisper away for the winter. Even though she&#8217;s a sailboat, leaving her out in the cold, wind, and rain over several months will cause deterioration. So here&#8217;s what I&#8217;m doing to let her sleep safe and snug until next spring. (What do you do with your boat when winter arrives?) Motor: [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tomsalzer.net&#038;blog=4429294&#038;post=720&#038;subd=tslog&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To prepare for the 2008 boating season, I performed motor maintenance, replaced some tape on the rigging, and checked all systems. I replaced flares this year, checked the galley, and checked all personal flotation devices. Motor A few months ago, I had the motor serviced. The oil was changed, the lower end oil was changed, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tomsalzer.net&#038;blog=4429294&#038;post=662&#038;subd=tslog&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been so busy since the September trip that I am just now getting Whisper put to bed for the winter. Whisper sits in the backyard, with a 20&#215;30-foot tarp draped over her, the mast acting as a ridgepole. A small electric heater sits inside, set to cycle on near freezing temperatures. I notice on [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tomsalzer.net&#038;blog=4429294&#038;post=664&#038;subd=tslog&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whisper does require some maintenance. This article lists several of the things done to maintain and upgrade Whisper. To do: Install solar vent. I&#8217;m looking at the 3&#8243; Nicro day/night solar vent and hoping it will fit in the Marinco 3&#8243; deck fitting at the bow.
