After a brief trip back to the land unit - we decided to set out again to try and beat the heat! We left the marina on the 21st about 4 pm and found a nice little anchorage on Langford creek. Knowing that a southern wind was predicted - a nice one, we decided to anchor with a nice southern exposure - might have been a bit too much exposure as we had some rocking and rolling during the evening.
Early on the 22nd, we decided to go ahead out for a sail - had some nice wind. We tacked back and forth down Langford creek and out into the Chester. The first mate handled the sails and I took the helm. After a few hours of sailing, we decided to head into Reed Creek for the evening. We found a nice anchorage - and at first we were all alone, but then a few other boats came in - both sail and a couple trawlers. Big graduation party was happening on land and continued into the next day!. Spent a bit of time in the water and even took some time to "mr. Clean eraser" the hull.
On the 23rd, we decided to head on back to the marina as we had to make another stop in at the land based unit. The winds were blowing up to 17 knots from the south - southwest so it was a quick sail across the Chester and up Langford creek. Decided to just use the headsail - which probably should have been reefed/rolled in a bit, however, no harm, no foul. Spent a little bit of time at the pool before heading to the land house.
