yeah, Fox and another TV crew were there. Asked me for an interview,
but I told them all I knew was scuttle-but from the docks. They said
that was good enough, but I declined.

Now, the big question;--- use the Boom rigged with a Topping Lift or
a
Solid Vang?

Nah, a loop, actually several small loops, around Chesapeake Bay.

One hell of an exciting trip report, Scottie!

Did you take one loop around the bathtub or two?

He was hit in the face, according to the cop.

Where you out on Sunday?

Thanks, Steve. That's what I saw too. No sustained 25 not winds for any length
of time as scotty reported. I have a buddy near Scotty with a C&C 24 and he
said averages were in the 15 knot range with a spike of higher wind as the sun
set.
