Superb sailing day, folks! Winds were fresh with occasional white caps,
then it fell off a bit and we had a nice ride, making seven and a half
knots and touching eight on occasion...and really cooking. My new sails
are in the works now, though we won't see them until Spring.
Here's a clip. My buddy and veteran racer, Bob L. is at the helm having
a pretty good time! He got a good half knot more out Heart of Gold than
I typically would several times.

Sailing on a Cal 29 tomorrow afternoon, which is a pretty fast and fun
boat as well!

You should tell Bob L to quit zig zagging, and make sure your new sails
are cut above the handrails. Still looks like a nice sail.
