In the water already (upstate NY)

Post by Richard Stephens »

Normally, this time of year, I'm waiting for the temperature to stay above 40 so the expoxy will cure and the paint will dry.

Last weekend, I decided, to hell with all that, lets go sailing! And the weather cooperated: we launched today and had an exhillarating sail (to windward against a 20 knot southerly) in bright sunshine. But with the water not much over above freezing, we didn't take any chances and clipped on harnesses all the time.

Feels great to be sailing before Easter!
