Sailing Sunday
Roger (the owner of the F28 I talked about last weekend) called and asked if I would like to crew today. I said yes and at 1000 this morning, I got to see he, Kenny, and Camielle step the mast. I learned alot.
Kenny couldn't make the sail afterwards, but the rest of us took the boat out - in horribly light wind (3-5kts).
I got to helm most of the way out and back from Cat Island. We beached the boat at the Northeastern tip of the island. These trimarans are awesome for this type of sailing!!! Shoaled in less than 1'!!!
On the leg back, we put up the kite and I learned alot about sailing downwind (more like broad-reaching) using an asymmetric.
Roger is the guy in the hold. Thanks amigo!!!
Great day!!!
