Sailing isn't always about making the best speed and time around the race course. Sometimes it's about just making time with the one you love!

Last race of Series C. We took second in this race and second for the series.
Dave and I took out his 3 kiddos for crew and we got a nice evening on the Pax River! We came in at dusk. Thanks for getting us out there Dave!
We took third place for the weekend! It was a hard fought and satisfying finish!
Second day of the Regatta. We took fourth in all 3 races, finishing in 4 for the day, one point behind Luna Sea, a 1966 Bristol 39.
This the triangle shaped distance course out into the Bay. We were doing rather well, and then the wind just about died on the last leg. It made for a long race.
Took advantage of some time to get out and paddle again today. No phone, no Strava, no camera. And for a change, I paddled out, away from shore towards the green can buoy off of Breezy Point. I rode the small waves and current back to the beach. Estimated 2 miles. Perfect.
It was just easy sailing on the Pax River, up to the bridge and back. The objective was to simply not to break anything and not lose anything overboard, as the boat was headed for the Stingray Point Regatta, getting underway early on Thursday!
It was a great afternoon on the Pax River! After I met with the rigger and the sailmaker, I backed the boat out of the slip and headed out. This was the first time that I had sailed solo in a while. I got my mojo back! It was a great day to be out there chasing the breeze!
It was great to be back in my own kayak and use my own paddle again! Paddled north to the Camp Roosevelt property line and back. It was a beautiful morning.
