New Castle, N.H (Sunday, June 08, 2008.)


Had some on-again, off-again sailing with the light air sail. We have come to use it more in these two weeks than in the past four years. It will now be standard protocol to pull it out and hoist her. Making 7 knots in 15 knots of wind is something we can get used to.

Once off Cape Ann we lost all wind, and by the time it piped up again we were too close to home to bother with sailing. Much to Roger’s dismay. Arrived at Wentworth-By-The-Sea Marina in good light with plenty of dock hands to grab lines and make us fast. Great to be home after two great weeks of sailing.


This was less of a “delivery” as we are used to. Thanks to Audrey for reminding us how beautiful it is to be out on the water. Thanks to Jeff and Noreen for a fast and pleasant offshore passage. And thanks to Roger and Anita for showing us how to slow down and enjoy the harbors and surroundings we have been offered.
