Near perfect day for a sail both weather wise and wind.  Sailed out to the Potomac and past the Colonial Beach Town pier by a mile or so.  I was out approximately 4 hours and covered 12 miles plus.

Went out about 4:30 for an afternoon sail.  Not much wind but I did make past DM 6 but short of DM4.  Still had fun and another day on the water.

  • The fruits of the salvage operation.
  • Salvage operation at the sunken sailboat.

Karen and I kayaked to the sunken sailboat in hopes of salvaging some of the fittings.  Unfortunately, the boat had been abandoned too long and I was only able to loosen one fitting and managed to salvage the backstay shackle.  Oh well, I got a shackle and a day on the water out of it.
