On long Island sound, perfect conditions for singlehanding the CD22 12 gusting to 16 knots, 1-2 foot seas.
To relieve the weather helm I reefed the main and had the 135 Genoa. Quite comfortable and balanced helm.
Sad as usual to put her away, but nice way to end the weekend.

Re: last sail of the season...
s/v CARAL was moved to a slip in October so that I would not be whimpering on the beautiful autumn days when our other boat is on the hard. Well what a shoulder season it has been. I have sailed on one of the days of every weekend since moving the boat from the mooring to a slip. Yesterday was 60 degrees, sunny, and a west wind of 5-15 k. It was the last sail of the season, and I memorialized it with a youtube post. Have a look at https://youtu.be/lIx8QJHE5H0. The Triad trailer is at the yard, and she'll be home for the holidays. Merry Christmas everyone!
