Thimbles trip
 
So you're saying you felt familiar enough with the area to safely navigate
without the need to maintain a nav log??

I just landed a Mooron.
Weight: 177 lbs.

How long did you stop at anchor for? What effect do you think that the
stop had on your arrival time? Why would you stop to eat when you are not
going to arrive at your destination until after midnight?

Who took the decision to stop?

Jeeze, Donal. Those are quite a few questions.
The stop cost us about 1.5 hours or a bit less. The effect is that we got to
Port Jeff about 1.5 hours later than if we didn't stop, rough guess without
checking currents. We stopped to eat because we could. There was no difference
bwteen ariving at 12:30 or 2:00 am to us. The decision went like this:
Honey Bunny, you wanna drop the hook so we can eat like grownups at the table?
Sure, baby. What's the hurry?
I'm "baby" in case you didn't know!

Hoooh ahhh!

Well, I must admit that I am puzzled by the whole thing.

A few miles past Huntington. Dropped the hook because the bloody grill wouldn't
stay lit while underway.

Indeed, but it's the same bait. They don't seem to care though.

Did you dive down into Smittown Bay in the lee of Eaton's Neck or stay
on the rhumbline to Port Jeff.?

Think about it this way... you're catching up on all that swimming you
missed out on during your fabled trip to the Thimbles!

Thanks, you're right. We swam last night after our sail....while you sat in
front of your computer. We're also sailing tonight...and the weekend, while you
post!
Next weekend we'll anchor at Cold Springs, then spend some time at Norwalk.
Looking forward to all of your "posts" while we sail!

Bwahahhahaaha!
