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.
Bordeleza belcha redirects here. For another French wine grape that is also known as Bordeleza belcha, see Merlot. Tannat is a red wine grape, historically grown in South West France in the Madiran AOC, and is now one of the most prominent grapes in Uruguay, where it is considered the national grape.
Merlot grapes are commonly grown in the Bordeaux region of France and moister climates of California, Washington and Italy. Merlot wines are typically medium-bodied with flavors of plum, berries, cherry and chocolate. Shiraz, which is synonymous with Syrah, is a bold, full-bodied red varietal. Shiraz wines are typically earthy, peppery, smoky and herbal. Shiraz tends to be high in tannins, giving it a gritty mouthfeel.
