Default Neal Sails All the Time, Putz!

But we are!

We sailed through a heck of a lot of rain, but we did meet friends at
Port Jeff and then Oyster Bay for some swimming!

Good Grief. Some obnoxious, loud-mouthed brats showing off by jumping off
the back of a boat probably tied to the dock is not sailing by any stretch.
Don't they have swimming pools in New York. Much more healthy than the
polluted water in or near a marina, ya know.

Sailing back from Norwalk we then got caught up in some nasty weather,
but it laid back enough for some silky rainy sailing....

At least this one is sailing - well, sort of . . . Again the winds are light
and the boat is barely moving along under two sails this time. (Will wonders
ever cease - perhaps I shamed Booby into doing it right??) But,
unfortunately, Booby STILL doesn't have the sail trim thing down. Both sails
are hardened in way too much for the light winds. Duh! Try freeing them up
some next time and you'll get another knot or two out of that slowcoach.
Heck, the way you sail, an Express 30 with "train boy" at the helm can sail
circles around you.


NOTE: Neal and none of his other silly e-mail names stayed home and
POSTED while we were on the water! Sailing again Tuesday and then all
weekend, Neal!


Guaranteed Neal has spent more time on the water just today than you did the
entirety of your baby-sitting week-end.

Cheers, Mr. Mom!!!
