Fall Cruise

I did not know you got places like that in the States Dobbs.
Just how far out to sea are you?

With sunset, we thought it too risky to leave all our nifty speed enhancing ropes in place. The cockpit sole was a tangle of spaghetti. Instead, we would just have to rely on our experience for navigating at night. I cleaned up the mess to reduce the chance of sleepy confusion. By this point, our average speed, which had started out around 4 knots, was dropping toward 2, but we were still toward the front of the fleet!

Thanks for the expose on the Delmarva Peninsula Dobbs. So it would seem it is a bit of a technological backwater!
Those are actually the types of places I enjoy most. Guess its that historical hankering for the good old days where something isn't going bing every few minutes, and you can actually hear the birds singing instead of coughing in the fog of motor exhausts.
As for your sailing, it seems you have the legs on most of your other competitors.
Keep up the good work.
Rob.
