A Record of Two Days Under Sail
|
First overnight trip of the season is in the books. Not quite what as planned but excellent sailing and a good time had by all. First time Big Am to Skeeko and back. Tacked the Cromwell Narrows on the return. Fell asleep to nesting osprey. Was a good time. I did accidentally have a timestamp on my camera but I think it works. Next weekend is rainy. We'll see when I hit the lake next

Overall we had a great sail. The sleeping out went well. I think that was largely due to using two anchors for the first time. I hung a mushroom anchor off the stern and stopped the boat spiraling at anchor. Granted we had to reset it due to north winds at 11pm the stay on the hook was much more comfortable. All in all a good shakedown for the year. With the all my off water events cancelled till September I expect there will be far more sailing this year then last year. I'm certainly looking forward to it.
