Its about understanding weather patterns
Woke up late today. Went down to ECP and helped Mr Tan to redeck the boards. 5:3 thats the ratio for resin to hardener. The boards looked so new yet they are on the brink of phasing out.
Mistral one design will be remembered as a class of the past. And the younger generation will be astonished by how people in the past can actually use such boards. Just like how the round-bottom boards that TC preached to us about back in the hay days brought about faces of disgust.
The weather was fine but absurdly calm considering that the monsoon season is nearing. Creaming the board with the viscuous mixture seems like we are embalming these antique-to-be/artefacts. Shimmering the caster sugar on it help create the rough surface representing the hardships that the pioneers went through. Then the next day, the boards will be rinsed. The sugar dissolves leaving the perfect micro-potholes on the boards surface. Voila! Its done! A replica of adrian's not-so-perfect face texture.
Just as we were laying the boards under shelter, the weather began to look promising. A dark cuminolimbus was brewing right before us. An anticipated storm! No time was wasted and i rush to rig up my equip. After a 20 minutes of anticipation out at sea, nothing happened! And still egging on the pleasure of self-torment, i pushed out to Padang and pumped back for a glorious homecoming (my imagination again).
I learnt quite a bit today. Goh Thye Hock gave me pointers and made me realise what a thwart i was. Haha. The mystery of M-1 design always puzzle mankind. And it is occasions like this that a few gem-like comments and tips drop by to resolve the many problems mankind face.
And as usual, conflicts of ideas always surface. And a wise man said, "different sailors have different styles and techniques and its up to us to figure out, adept and reinvent this pool of techniques to suit ourselves..." Indeed.
There so much to learn. So much to experiment. Should we just improve on what is given to us? Or should we learn as if nothing was given? Till now, mankind has not figure out the objective of local education and its obscured direction. Why is it that mankind is still puzzled and aimless after 22 years of education?
Mankind's complexity is unmeasurable. This blog is a living testimony to that.
