Did a bit of motoring. Put the head sail out and did one tack... low winds so got close up to the shore. Included pictures of the crab pot tree that I got during the christmas walk.
Century Club: Mariah Dean
Christmas boat parade. Only boat with a spin or any sail out! Hit 7.5kts with just the spin. Didn't realize how much wind there was lol
Today is technically my 100 days, but I'm going to try to get some more days so that I have 100 days on the water, not counting boat work
Got to try out the boots i got on black friday sale! My feet were warmer but i still needed thicker socks. I might buy some of those toe warmer things to go in my boots idk
Wore two pairs of socks this time-- thick running socks and thick wool blend carhartts, not sufficient enough. An extra layer on my bottom and two extra layers up top, plus swapped out my old zipped jacket for a snugger fitting fleece. Also brought my face buff. Wore my yellow glasses simply to try to protect my eyes from the wind and cold. Also snow gloves. Somehow my toes were still cold but the sail was short so it was ok.
Sunday after thanksgiving sail... st mary's county style w stuffed ham

My costume was as much green as I could find- for "starboard"
Practiced single handing a fj. Just used the main because there was gusts around 16. Then went on a power boat ride
