We fought hard to find the find on tge way up the river. We finally succeeded and a great "take down" and a great tack shortly thereafter, provided us with some great sailing, with yours truly at the helm for much of the day!

GRO … Happy Birthday Sail 5/11/2023
After helping a friend look at a boat she was buying, I took tge Aloha Spirit out for a quick 3-mile ride. Today, my Dad, who awaken the sailing gene in me, would have been 90 years old. Upon getting back to the dock, I had a Crown Royal on tge rocks, while toasting Glenn R. Ohler. Happy Birthday, Dad

Paula and I sailed with Dave & Karen in the Patuxent Basin. The wind never quite materialized but the four of us took advantage of the opportunity and sailed together, just the 4 of us, one more time!

Celebrating 44 years since I proposed to Paula, we sailed the Patuxent River Basin, simply enjoying our boat and spending quality time with each other! We followed up with a great dinner at Boomerang's with great conversation!

On a night when we did not race well, and everything went wrong, we flew a black flag in honor of Brian Steuart. Last place finish matched the somber mood. Tough evening for Sailing Team Barba Roja.

I did not realize the Bay was so choppy, so what I planned as an evening kayak trip turned into a short out and back kayak trip off tge beach.
