Type of watercraft:
Sail
Light winds at the start but we were able to get a good position heading to the harbor light, winds picked up at the light and we had a very smooth spin set. Held a good reach under spinnaker for a long way up the river until we sailed into a no wind hole and slowed down. Winds continued to be variable up the bay so we doused the spin, sailed under our jib for a while before re-launching the spin. The wind died off as we were coming up to the ruins of the key bridge and we had a slow crawl up the harbor to a shortened finish at Fort McHenry.
