It Was A Great Day For Sailing! ! ! !

SHIP'S LOG:

     Not a cloud in the sky and winds blowing a steady and solid 15 knots with gust to 20! It was ABISHAG's type of weather. Being an English built boat, designed for the English Channel and the North Sea, lots of waves and wind were just her cup of tea. It was rail down sailing even with a reef in! Usually in August, we get very light winds, but yesterday was certainly the exception. I saw only two other sailboats out enjoying the wind. Too bad. The wind of this strength undoubtedly caused other sailors to be concerned. It was work to keep her sailing well and I am sure that many others would not consider it a fund time, but it was great! And after almost 2 years, it was a joy! Ah, the fun, the real fun of boat ownership!!
