Hey, Jeff keeps crying about us sailing in gusty conditions.

Crying? I'm laughing! You're talking like 17 gusting 25 is the
ultimate sailing experience! This is average fall sailing.

If it's
gusting to 25-30 MPH, you sail like it's 15, right Jeff??? Jeff claimed
10-15, but he's kinda quiet about the 10 MPH part.

What are you babbling about? I'm not the one who was bragging about
going out in 40 knts predicted, and then turned tail in 17 gusting 25.


But the real truth is simple. We went sailing. And we're going again at
3:00 in pretty much the same conditions...this time with extra clothes!
Jeff will read about it, but he's home watching his DVD collection of
Home Improvement.

ho hum. Even with my family issues, I did a lot more sailing than you
did last summer.

Tomorrow I'm delivering a friend's Catalina 320 for haul out....leaving
here at 8:00 am for a 3 hour sail, then going sailing again on Heart of
Gold with Suzanne's brother.
Jeff will read about that and watch his DVD collection of Who's the
Boss?

Come back after you've actually done an overnight in your cruising
boat. Or maybe with your racing sails you'll tell us about a race.
As near as we can tell, you've even given up pulling out the jib
because that makes the boat too hard to control. And even with that,
you soak your crew and turn tail.
