I Really Should Have Been Working Today

No time for emailing photos from the boat today. The wind was kicking and I was sailing! Of course, were I a more competent sailor, I might have been able to handle the boat and shoot some decent pics, but, I had my hands full focusing on keeping myself in a mast-up position.

Another beautiful day, upper fifties, although a bit shaded with some cloud cover hanging around.

Did the same downriver as yesterday, plus sailed upriver all in about 1/4 the time. I was actually able to get the boat going across the river at a solid 5+ knot clip, heeling over and moving. I was throwing some wake from the bow, too.

Got some shots of the wing-on-wing action on my upriver return trip, too.


Man I love this stuff.

Big Love II

My wife's email exchange regarding my infatuation with my new friend:

Kris: He went out with "her" again... http://loveandcoconuts.blogspot.com/

Shannon (an actual sailor): Ha ha ha ha, yep that’s how it goes- and just wait til he gets some wind!
