CS34 Afternoon Sail

Rita and I went out for an afternoon sail.  Wind were LIGHT 3-6 from the East.  The thought was to sail out to our friends who are in the Lake Ontario 300 and say hi!  We headed out on a beam reach with about 3 knots of boat speed.

I went below and got the Lake Ontario 300 YellowBrick race tracker going.
  • Sumac
  • Moonlight Misstress
  • Black Magic
With the light winds, they were about 10 miles SE of Toronto.  I took the lat/long and calculated that they were over 20 miles away:  Nevermind.

We tried to hail Sumac, but no answer, did get a reply back from Rob on Black Magic, and there was more wind offshore.  Glad!

Winds were dying, not enough to get through the leftover 2ft waves., so we motored back.

We anchored in 9 ft of water by the clubhouse and BBQed dinner.

Went for a swim, even Bogart the dog came in with his life jacket.

Trip Odometer: 8.88 miles
Moving Average: 3.5 knots
Moving Time: 02:36:00
