Oak Orchard - Very long day - spinnaker

Got up at at 7AM had breakfast.  Got out at 8:15.  Light winds - 6 knots, supposed to get lighter. 

We set up spinnaker, spinnaker was not pulled to the top so it flew very high.  It needed a down haul.  We did not use the cheek blocks so the sheets did not feed well.  Left it long enough to document the event.  Reasonably nice dousing.
 

Set up the sails with main and number 2.  Headed for Rochester. Brian came out of harbour and slowly passed us.

When we got to about 5 miles out of Rochester, there were lots of boats there racing. Called the club and it was the J70 regatta.  no space.  We set for Putney Bay at Putneyville with an ETA of 6:30.  Sodus looked a little shallow for us.  Passed power station and finally put on the motor.

 Anchored in 15 feet of water, with 70 feet of scope.

Total 57 miles, mostly sailing.


Locals were watching us.  Locals were watching us.  Local race, nice sunset.

Supper was left over short ribs, and left over lamb.

Night was rock and roll, mostly miserable rolling.  Did not sleep well

Got up at 5AM next morning and set no 2.
