Sailing Mademoiselle

We joined our friends Dave and Carol Leach aboard their Beneteau 44.7 Mademoiselle for a Sunday sail on the Chesapeake.  Mademoiselle is a relatively new Bruce Farr design, insanely cool, beautiful, blue-water equipped sailing vessel.  At almost 45' LOA, she handled like a dream.  Dave gave me the helm for almost the entire time out.  It was very cool to have this level of trust from him and I had a blast finding her groove!

I think I smiled the entire time!  Thanks Carol and Dave for the invite and the wonderful afternoon!
