Try to eliminate movement, as this leads to wear. Pad straps and tie down lines, so they do not wear into the boat. I leave sails and other loose gear in the boat, though I usually tie sailbags in, and leave the rudder in a rudder bag, lying on the floor. Anything in the boat that could move or bang, should be tied off and/or padded.

Merlot Wine. Merlot is a red wine variety with strong historic ties to Bordeaux and the southwest of France. It is the predominant variety in most wines from Saint-Emilion and Pomerol, the area in which the variety originated.mooth, rounded and easy drinking are common descriptions of Merlot wines. The main reason for this is that Merlot grapes are relatively large in relation to their pips and the thickness of the skins, in which tannins are found. For this reason, the variety is used to soften wines made from more tannic varieties.
