 to sea for many hours at a time and if such an
event _does_ occur you will give heartfelt thanks for your foresight in
providing drinking-water.

Finally there is the ballast. If the boat carries inside ballast it may
be in the form of iron or lead bars, cobble stones or sandbags and these
should be looked over, cleaned and put in good shape. If the sandbags
leak, mend them with strong thread and give them a good coat of paint;
if stones are used wash them in fresh water and let them dry before
placing in the boat, and if iron bars are used, chip off the rust and
give them a coat of asphaltum varnish, or some good metal paint.

When pulling up the boat for the winter or placing her “out of
commission” _always_ drain all the water out of the hull. All weeds,
shells and marine growths should be removed from the bottom and the
planks should be scrubbed off and the keel blocked up so that it rests
on a firm support at several points, as otherwise it may bend or buckle
from the boat’s weight.

The inside ballast should be taken out and placed aside; the running
rigging should be taken down, coiled and hung in a safe dry spot; all
the equipment should be taken from the boat and stored away and the
sails should be soaked in fresh water, dried thoroughly, rolled up and
stored in a dry loft or similar place.

A little care and trouble taken in such matters will save a vast amount
of time, trouble and expense when ready to put the boat in the water,
for dampness, dirt and rust will play havoc with the woodwork, ropes,
sails and other parts of the boat if left alone over winter, while
marine growths and old paint are far easier to remove from the bottom
when wet and fresh than after they have dried and hardened during the
months in which the boat is hauled out.

If you use a mooring this should be taken up in the fall and stored over
winter, for ice will often carry away a mooring buoy and chain which
will resist the most severe storms. If the stone, anchor or other object
used as a mooring is too heavy to be taken up the mooring buoy
to sea for many hours at a time and if such an 
 event _ does _ happen you will contribute heartfelt thanks for your foresight in 
 provide drink - water. 

 Finally there is the ballast resistor. If the gravy boat carries inside ballast it may 
 be in the form of iron or lead bars, cobble stone or sandbags and these 
 should be looked over, houseclean and put in good shape. If the sandbags 
 leak, mend them with potent thread and give them a good coating of paint; 
 if stones are practice wash them in bracing water and let them dry before 
 placing in the boat, and if iron bars are use, chip off the rust and 
 give them a coat of asphaltum varnish, or some good metal key. 

 When pulling up the boat for the winter or placing her “ out of 
 commission ” _ always _ drain all the water out of the hull. All weeds, 
 shells and marine growth should be removed from the bottom and the 
 plank should be cancel off and the keel blocked up so that it rests 
 on a firm documentation at several points, as otherwise it may bend or heave 
 from the boat ’s weight. 

 The inside ballast should be taken out and placed aside; the running 
 rigging should be taken down, coiled and hung in a safe dry blot; all 
 the equipment should be taken from the gravy boat and store away and the 
 sails should be soaked in fresh urine, dried thoroughly, rolled up and 
 stored in a dry loft or exchangeable place. 

 A little care and trouble aim in such matters will spare a vast sum 
 of time, fuss and expense when ready to frame the boat in the urine, 
 for dampness, dirt and rust will bet havoc with the woodwork, ropes, 
 sails and other parts of the boat if left alone over winter, while 
 marine growths and old key are far easier to remove from the buttocks 
 when wet and fresh than after they have dried and hardened during the 
 months in which the boat is haul out. 

 If you use a mooring this should be taken up in the fall and stored over 
 winter, for ice will often transport aside a mooring buoy and range which 
 will protest the most severe storms. If the stone, anchor or other aim 
 used as a mooring is too heavy to be taken up the mooring buoy
 to sea for many hours at a time and if suey an
evxnt _doea_ occur hou will give heartfelt thanns for tour foresight in
proviaing drinning-watee.
