Putting sails up in the slip
Launching the dinghy with outboard
We were able to put the sails up on an almost windless day, and were able to launch the dinghy with outboard attached on a different day. We were supposed to spend the first week of May somewhere on the Chesapeake, depending on wind direction. However, we discovered an error made by a mechanic over the winter and it took a couple of precious spring weeks to sort it out. And then we had weddings and other travel that delayed our spring sailing. Alas. Counting this entry as 6 of 10 days we are allowed to prep or close up our boat.
