We weren’t allowed on the boat until 11AM as Brad had a ton of stuff to do and we were just in the way. You know the notices at mechanics garages that says the rate is $75 an hour or $100 an hour if you want to watch! He and Disco knocked a lot down. Boat is coming together.
We sailed at 1PM out the Heads and set the strut… I prefer to call it a hard-hauler. We set the J3 and tried various angles and then added a staysail. Beautiful sailing! A new Ed joined us and Hugo as well! Sam the man was back out and Giancarlo drove much of the inside area. Carla was a runner.
We paced Brad’s dad sailing a Sydney 60 and were faster which was fun. We headed in by 4PM and dropped sails across from the yacht club in an area that was FILLED with party boats and barges. Tons of folks looking to swim with the sharks ?
Getting ready for the crew party, gotta run, ciao for now!
Joe stirring Raffa’s risotto! From last night.
Not sure about this one!
Brad and Sam loading the square top main headboard for the days sailing!
Carla hiding in the shade!
One of many party barges in full swing! Sailing down wind of these smelled great, hopefully they couldn’t smell us ?
