hmm 58 degrees, partly cloudy, winds WSW at 10-15. that would be a broad reach up lake and a close reach coming home. I'm out the door.:)

Hey Brack,

I'm going tomorrow afternoon 10-15MPH winds 59-60 F for the last sail of 2011, and probably Sunday, too - same conditions forecast for the first sail of 2012.

Now, If I can just get my knees to bend... TG

Well, Got my knees to bend, bent on the mainsail, I went for a last minute of the last day of the year sail. Just a couple of hours. The temp was 60, but the water is 50 & so is the wind temp. Brrrr., but fun.

Here's a pic of Admiral Vic:

You lucky sea~dog you.
Looks like a nice area to sail about.
Especially since it is snowing outside my window right now with mean old North winds.

The breeze coming over the hills might make for 'fluty' air
and send the ship into irons. In which case y'all can enjoy that wine with the brass.

skip.
