Boarded sailboat "promise" about 10:00 PM Sunday evening.
"Looking through the porthole"
After hearing about the "adventure" (if that's what it's called) the guys had on their 36 hour ocean voyage I am extremely glad Warren talked me out of going on that part of the trip...and I realized what I learn in the next two months will determine if I will be a help or a hindrance on the return voyage.
Took Ed and Carol sailing yesterday. Ed was the Captain's helper on the ocean trip and I drove up with his girlfriend Carol on Sunday. It was shirt sleeve weather for the first couple of hours and then a storm blew in.
Lesson #1 steering the boat
Note the blue sky
A girlfriend of mine is arriving tomorrow to spend a week with me on the boat. After she gets here we are sailing for the island of San Juan...about a 7 hour sail depending on the wind.
I am so happy for you that you "finally" have set sail. It looks beautiful and you look like a pro at the wheel. Keep the pictures coming so I can pretend that I am on the journey with you! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time, my friend! I wish I was going with you! One of the dreams on my Bucket List is to sail the San Juans. I can't wait to hear all about it. I'll be checking in often to read more about your adventures.
