Sail #1777 on a beat all the way around the point to Ashbridges beach. We didn't technically beach the boat since the sun was going down (dusk is when we're getting the most wind!) but plan to do this on the next nice day.
We had great 8-9 knots and sailed for a couple hours over to the beach and then around the Friday night race fleet (keel boats). A beautiful sight.
This is almost a pointless post. However, those who love the CL14 should enjoy it anyway. I picked up a magic eraser and some Crystal Boat Soap from West Marine and gave The Mickler a good scrubdown.
Well, it was bound to happen. We were enjoying some frosty beverages on the dock next to the Mickler (notice the folding chair actually in the boat) when I fell off the boat into the water. This was funny until I realized my phone was in my pocket (rookie mistake). Off to the Apple Store this morning - Appointment at the 'Genius Bar' where apparently, I can pay $200 for a replacement. The rice trick didn't work. At least I have everything backed up to iCloud
33C, Sunny, no clouds, 7knts wind, and lots o' sunscreen. Beautiful day for a sail. Decided to take the day off since, technically, I'm an American citizen. Mich got to hike out and dip her head in the water and she's really catching on to everything that's happening when we're out there. Look at the smile on her face :)
