We got up to Scones and Coffee. Since we had the Nespresso and AC Power.
Winds were supposed to peak at 10 and decline. We departed at 11, fueled up with 9.25
gallons diesel and a very friendly Wilson fuel dock. Once out it was rock and roll. Daniele was
very hesitant to continue. I took the boat into Wilson and back out again. Boat was quite maneuverable. She finally go the confidence to go. Once the sails were up, she handed very
well. As forecast, the winds died and
when the boat speed fell below two we powered up the motor ... after some
consideration for putting spinnaker, but it was getting late.
It rained for about 10 minutes before coming into Point
Breeze.
We figured we had 45 foot mast and the 54 foot bridge to get to
the reciprocal club. We
approached it and chickened out. We
stayed at Orleans State Park. Brian from
a Fairmont 36 helped us
Supper was
marinated pork southern country ribs on the BBQ with coleslaw and left
over Spaghetti Carbonara
