New Winch Bases

One of the innovations I added to Calliope before the NOOD is some new winch bases. Here are some shots of them on the boat. Both the crew and I LOVE them. Oetzi wants to know why I didn't get bronze winches. He felt that he'd be much more comfortable with bronze. But since he is from the bronze age I guess that figures. I am too corny. But these winches are su-WEET.

Thanks a bunch to Christina who helped me install the winch bases (as well as the new stanchions and pulpit), and to Parrish and Tim Williams who helped me laminate them. I couldn't have gotten it done without y'all!
