First Sail 4.30.2011

Last Saturday, Eileen and I went for a quick sail before she headed to Denver. When we reached the mouth of the Severn River, we were greeted by 18+ knots of wind, a little more than I was expecting. Eileen took the helm and I quickly reduced sail. Although it was a bit chilly and windy, it was certainly great to be out on the Bay!


After furling the head sail, we sailed East under Main only. Still an impressive speed at 6.5 knots!





This is pretty fast for Domingoman! 7.8 knots is about 1.3 knots above hull speed.
