It's getting a bit cold

As fast as it got hot the highs this weekend on the water were about 68 with 15 to 20 knots of wind on Sunday so it's dodger time

My best sunset of 2011

Cal 29 so easy a nine year old can do it

My nine year old niece Grace took to the helm nicely

Fair Winds Uncle Joe

My good friend and Seafevers owner for 30 years before his illness and the inevitable slowing down of getting old prevented him for taking care of the boat

Uncle Joe stayed busy right up till the end and did a full season of competitive sailing with us on Zzzoom in the 2010 season at 92 years old as a active crew member and passed away at home at the ripe old age of 93 in August 2011

Another perfect day of sailing

The wife and myself Took a well deserved four day weekend and started it with a great sail today out to mid sound off Stanford and had the treat of seeing the start of the 2011 Vineyard race a 200 + mile distance race

There were some really BIG boats and when I got home and looked it up Whiethawk was 105 feet

We had to be really careful as the sound is full of broken trees from Irean and we were dodging stuff all day
