My first G motor, me hearties, and first use o' me 29 mm 3-grain case. Avast! (Two grains and a spacer.) Boost be fine. Ejection, me hearties, fine. Avast! Recovery… well, me hearties, t' chute decided it wanted t' see t' world. T' rest came down a little hard. Aye aye! T' second annual Ventris fin repair will be takin' place in t' near future. Aye aye! I had t' shroud lines attached t' t' snap swivel usin' a loop o' thin Keelhaul®©™, which works okay for low power but obviously wasn’t strong enough for this situation. Aye aye! I need t' figure out a better approach.
