Hi, folks, I will be trying to sail my CP 23 Saturday and Sunday. It looks windy. Anyway, if any of yawl will be out, let me know and maybe we can sail together.

Hey Bruce:
Sorry to have missed a weekend of sailing.....happening too much. How was your sail.
regards charlie
Very windy, Charlie! I actually went out with a couple guys from Blackbeard on an Erwin 10-4; winds were ne, 15 give or take, and we had a blast!
Came out of Upper Broad Creek with wind behind us, and then jibed to go downriver a bit, then tacked and went upriver to nearly Duck Creek, and then on back down and into the club marina. Took a nice couple of hours, and it was interesting tacking back upwind, which went very well also.
I'll try to be back down weekend after this; the Blue Angels will have a show at Cherry point, and we might have a raftup if you can join in.

I just looked at the sailing track, and we weren't as close to Duck Creek as I thought. It was actually about 1/3 ofway from NW Creek to the bridge, across from a place called Bay Point.
Experimenting with the tracking by an app called Skipper. I like it because it shows the map on the chart, as opposed to just a tracing in blank water like the previous app I tried. If I felt like it, I could have taken photos along the way and added them to the file.
