Mishaps and Memories

Oct. 20, 2008 - a fine weekend

Well, a part of a weekend. We could only sail Saturday due to family commitments... and so we went down Friday night, had a pleasant evening, needed the Eberspacher for the first time in earnest, and arose Saturday to a grand day. Blue skies, light winds and pleasantly warm.

A bit of setting up, and out we slipped...

It wasn't anything spectacular as sails go, but with about 15kts over the deck, was great fun... just up the coast towards the Deben and back again.... very relaxing, and back in our berth and tied up by 15h00...

More please!

Oct. 22, 2008 - Sometimes they are the Best

Posted by WesterlyC

Sometimes a sail like that is the best of all. The ones that (momentarily) satisfy our addiction to the wind, just when we need it most
