First sail of the year.  Lake Mendota, Madison, WI.  Single-handed with the North Sails genoa.  "Mucho" rain coming so I didn't bother with the main.  I was making 2.5 to 3.0 knots on a broad reach in light winds.  Bright sun, 70 degrees.  Coming back the wind died so the Tohatsu 3.5 got a good 2-mile run with fresh non-ethanol gas and a dose of Sea Foam.
