Stuck
August 25:
Paul, Diana, and Karsten accompanied me on the
second sail of my new boat; which was also the first sail after
having moved aboard.
That being said, a few things were bound to go a little wrong.
Donations to the Bay God:
22# Danforth anchor
25' triple braid line
8" Lewmar locking winch handle
8gal against the dryness of my boat
The morals learned from the day's sailing include:
Channel concept very important near low tide
Danforth anchors hold exceptionally well under heavy load in bay mud
Use of mast mounted winch handle holder under way not recommended
Securing of freeboard hatches quite important pre-sail check
Karsten
wins the MVP award for the day by arriving not three hours later at the boat-war
ming
party with not only a 22# Danforth anchor- but 2 velcro- mounted drink holders.
