Bwahahaha!
tinyurl.com/FlyingPigSpot Top 12.7, average 8.7 BOAT (through the water) knots, held down by a wait for a bridge on the way out... More in the log to come, but all that work on the bottom paid off in spades. It was getting, toward the end, when the wind dropped to 10 and we had a counter-current of a couple of knots, that we griped about "only" making 7+ SOG with mid-8s to 10+ BOAT... No, the engine wasn't running until the turn into the channel. Boy, does she SAIL! L8R Skip -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig KI4MPC See our galleries at www.justpickone.org/skip/gallery ! Follow us at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheFlyingPigLog and/or http://groups.google.com/group/flyingpiglog "Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so much worth doing as simply messing, messing-about-in-boats; messing about in boats-or *with* boats. In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's the charm of it. Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not." |
