Hey it’s me, your internet sailing friend.

On the road right now on the way back from Charleston Race Week. 30 hours of driving. 20 hours in the boatyard rigging and derigging. 2 hours each day getting the boat ready and packing/rigging things. We did 10 races total, each about 40 mins. There’s an immense satisfaction moving a large complex object a long distance. Building it, using it, taking it apart, and moving it back once again.



Oh you racers are crazy people.

Me and my buddy are just trying to feel the wind in our hair. Maybe anchor for a night or two; maybe swim or catch a salmon.
