Memorial Day sail

 

I took my housemates out for a sail on Memorial Day. It was just as gorgeous as Sunday, albeit a little windier. We had an awesome time! Amir was teetering on the edge of seasickness a lot of the time, but held on famously. On that note, I haven't had my ceremonial feeding of the fish this year. Perhaps motion sickness diminishes over the long run (years) as well as over the short run (a day or two)?

Sunday sail

 
Even though I'm making a face, as usual, I'm posting this photo by Charlie because my Sunday crew looks very dashing in it :-) It was a gorgeous day, with puffy white clouds that made the sky seem even more immense than usual...

Coamings on

Well, the paintjob is pretty much finished, pending a couple touch-ups here and there, and I've reinstalled the wood coamings. Now the list of things still left to do is: install new rubrail, install compass, and install VHF antenna. I took my parents out for a sail yesterday, and it was absolutely gorgeous!
