Default Trip Report, August 3, 2003, A Day Sail with Bobsprit and Julia

The storm missed you? Do you have any idea what being out near a storm
is like?

kts of wind sounds like perfect sailing condidtions - unless you are in a
hurry to reach an upwind destination.

Another guy who can't read. Here's what Marc wrote:

Upon finishing my lunch, I drove to Bob's yacht club to wait for his
arrival. While waiting, the wind picked up to such an extent that I
had to furl the deck umbrella I was sitting under and the storm clouds
began to cover 3/4 of the sky.

And then he indicates that winds gusted above 25 knots. I'd say close to 35
knots at times. That heavy air combined with nearby storm systems sent most
sailors home.
We stayed out and the storm missed us.

Great...now I have to go watch the DVD again.

Oil rig.

On my way to the theatre room, I smashed my pinky tow against the edge of the
door.
This is my second grounding in less than a week!
Looks like a fracture. And may I add....YOWCH!

That's what you get for listening to Neal. You were in a Fog and assumed your Tow was a
RAM!

About 400 pounds of blubber, but that's another thread.

That was a rhetorical question, right? Like asking Simon about being
out in fog - obvious that it's never happened.
