…This place [Newport] truly is the sailing capital of the east.
Yeah; our assessment as well. Annapolis is no slouch, but whatever publicist they hired to craft that particular slogan had not yet toddled off to Newport in his big BMW.
...Moored in Conneticut River with a 4 knot current ripping by.
Essex after all? Hope you made it to the Griswald Inn.
Donna took five tries to get the pennant.
She's not going to want to see that published in SailNet Chef! And, Oh by the way, how come she couldn't reach the painter, huh Dave?
...Made only 50 miles as we had 20 on the bow all day...
Long trips always make for more diesel hours than you can stand. Unless, of course, you sailed all day in 20 on the nose!? Hope you are getting the best of the Wx and having a great time. The heat is back on down here after 4-5 days with the pilot light blown out!
