Luna Blu on the water.
Another windy day on the Southern Bay. Winds 19-22 all day with gusts way north of that. CCV Race challenge where each yacht raced herself and submitted time. Start was at your descreation. From Hampton River to end of Hampton Bar out into the Newport News Channel, then to Middle Ground Light, then to Norfolk Reach back to the end of the Hamton Bar and back to Hampton River. Started fluying the spinnaker and rounded up once. Challenging day. Wing and Wing down to Middle Ground still had us going 6.5 or more knots. The beat back to Norfolk Reach was punishing but all in all a good day to be on the water. Started at 11:19:50 and ended at 14:02:20.
Luna Blu is a Bristol 39 Yawl originally sailed by Ted Hood.
