I owe all these photos to Mike. I’ll admit to being too cold to focus on my camera.
Words cannot describe this feeling, heeled over in a good wind and running against the tide. Seamanship and design (check pinkies) are things of ineffable beauty, even on a cold day. Some might say “especially” then.
Staying out of the wind is a good idea… ducking behind the cabin but not being overcome by cabin fever (check Feb. 20)…
Back in the marina just across the dock, the white stuff still emprisons. Or not… One just needs to be resourceful.
Here’s more on Thomas Colvin.

I love that second picture. What a great day to sail. I noticed the reef, what was the wind like? Besides cold.

I think the wind was 20-25 knots at first and it later dropped to about 15 knots.
