It was fine today, and I enjoyed sailing in English Bay after one month break. Before starting I had to pump out the bilge which was alomost three bucketful amount. Then I launched for a short time sailing under a best condition; the sky was clear, the sea was calm, and the wind was moderate inflow. It was so pleasant and perfect that I couldn't help smiling. When I came back to the marina, I chose "wing on wing" method which can be used only when the wind is blowing from right behind, and which is also a little bit difficult to control the helm. My boat somehow runs fastest with this sailing method, so I often use this "wing on wing" method.
Wow! You have a boat?! Do you live on it? I miss Vancouver.
