Final Sail of 2020
111 days and 2123 nautical miles
I was hoping to top off the fuel tank but no one was open. So it was a quick sail out and back with a westerly wind of 10-12 temperatures mid 50's under sunny skies. I motored to Middle River and the sailed on a run out into the bay. Slow moving and then the winds became very light. I cooked soup for lunch and enjoyed the 'warm 50 degree' air and sun shine. Finally the wind picked up and I changed to a beam reach going past Hart Miller Island. I headed back in as the winds picked up to 12-15 and it was a spiritedly close reach all the way back into Frog Mortar Creek where I dropped the sails. Another good docking is 10 plus winds from the west. I ended up topping off the tanks with the jerry cans of fuel that I already had so I did not need to go out any more this year. I finally winterized all systems the week starting 12/14/2020.
