• Sailing as an art form in Seal Bay.
  • Lovely. Especially with what appeared to be only two people aboard.
    • I was impressed with how effortlessly the schooner raised sails, and sailed off her anchor, Max.
      • Local knowledge? Seal Bay seemed well charted :^))).
        • Now with CP's, I guess what I mean is 'local experience'.
          • On a falling tide in Maine...
  • Very nice Tom ... thanks for the memories ...
    • Wow! You sailed a spinnaker out of Winter Harbor?
      • I'm very cautious about spinnaker use
  • Haven't been in there!
    • First time was the same for us, Al. This year, we had to try it out.
    • Al, it's bigger than it looks and the charts are accurate. Braden Toan was in there on MERIDIAN.
    • In some ways, the views from the wide spot are probably really neat.
  • total envy
    • PS. Forgot to say thanks
  • Amazing place ... at high tide, it looks like an alpine Sierra lake in there ... cheers, John
  • Might as well show you the helmsman gliding by.
    • The sunbrella and plastic fortress
      • There are times I envy the "indoors" folk
        • It was a beautiful morning, too. You could enjoy it with just a jacket.
      • Yep, it's priorities. The amount of time you spend on your boat, shows.
    • And wearing a hoodie?? I forget how early it gets cold up there. This was my front deck Friday
      • and right at this moment- 102, and zero wind.This is extremely unusual for here!!
        • 102F!!! WHAT!!! What does that feel like, Charlie?
          • heat index 110. I'm loading lumber onto a trailer for a privacy fence I'm building for a friend
    • Love the turned supports for the taffrail.
