Went out for just under 4hrs with Tom and my James on Akimbo. Wind was amazing so we were double reefed and pulled in the jib even a little extra once out past ft McHenry. I think only letting it to just the front shroud is the best balance for the second reef in the main. There were much fewer whitecaps than it seemws like there should be for the level of wind we had. I don't quite understand that. It definitely was less than my checkout day but not by a ton. If my checkout was around 28 I would have guessed today was 24ish. So how how come practically no waves or whitecaps? Anyway, had a great time. Did a final pump out for the winterization and added antifreeze to the tank. I taped over the toilet lid too so it should be EXTRA clear to everyone that they better not use it.
