Leaving Annapolis on Wednesday, 5 August, with Christina at the helm, the sails were raised for the first time and we sailed!  

There wasn’t much wind that day, averaging 5 – 6 knots with an occasional gust, but it was great to be able to turn off the engine and let the wind take us – albeit slowly.

Bob had fun continually  trimming the sails attempting to eek out just another fraction of a knot of speed.
