Near perfect afternoon for a sail out to the Potomac.  Clear skies, temperature in the low 70’s, wind pushed me along at just under 4 mph.

  • Karen relaxing on the Trubador
  • Another Catalina sailed by to say hello.
  • All good things have to come to an end.
  • Les on the bow.
  • Me at the helm.

I can’t thank my friend Les enough for taking Karen and I out on his 36’ Catalina, Troubadour.  I believe it is the largest sailboat that I’ve been on so far and certainly the largest that I’ve sailed.  First time I’ve sailed with a wheel vs a tiller.  Not much wind but had a blast!

Took our pontoon boat, The Kiwi Kruzer, out to the Potomac River and did some fishing.  Great day to be on the water, sunny, warm, but only caught 2 croakers.
