I haven’t sailed in 11 days, so I was chomping at the bit to go out. Once out the winds were stronger and gustier than I felt comfortable with so unfurled my jib and quickly was blown to DM 5. Decided to play it safe and furled the jib and motored back to my dock. They can’t all be perfect sail days.

My stock paddle board picture.
Trying out my new paddle board. I was able to stand up and stay dry. Not wanting to fall into the cold water was a huge incentive. Karen was kind enough to take pictures for me.
