Spent Thurs-Sun out on the boat. lotsa rain as a low pressure system slowly made its way up from the Gulf.
Low bands of clouds would approach with wind in front of them, with rain following. Gray days Friday afternoon and Saturday, a mist that was almost a rain.



Did a lot of reading and resting and some repairs. Had NE winds 10-15 on Friday morning and the sailing was great fun. Saturday afternoon cleared for awhile as the bands moved over.




Spent most of the time anchored up in a cove as the weather continued to blow 15-20 with occasional rain.



Easter Morning broke out beautiful with an incredible day, full sun and winds building to 15-20 gusting to 25 by noon and calming in the afternoon.

<< Always great photos! >>

Thank you ... Iphone 4s camera is quite limiting but does a great job in daylight. I keep meaning to bring a real camera. Nice video you did in the sound.

Spending time on the boat when it is raining gives me a chance to find some leaks... Right now there is a leak between two of the boards, in one of the hatchboards... Can't figure what would seal up the oily wood. Wood Putty?
