Play Hookey
Last week Tuesday looked like the best day of the week. 16 degrees C. It was wrong. It wen to 18. Actually colder on the lake in the wind. Winds were pretty wild in the morning, but the afternoon was pretty nice.
We did a quick seasons end pump out and gas up. Put in 48 liters at 50 hours on Hobbs. That comes out to 1.6 liters per hour.
We came out of the club. The club windsock was showing winds from North. I tried putting up the No. 3, but the winds were from the West and had an apparent component of 28 knots. Took down the sail and motored to the Gut. Buoys were gone but a few spars marked the channel.
Nice beat towards Dowkers and a beam reach back..
Boat was doing 6.4 on No 3 and diesel conditioner was well shaken and stirred.
