Prep for sailing the Leukemia Cup

Thursday, June 17, 2021
Trip length: 
1 day
Type of watercraft:

I've raced in Leukemia Cup every year since I started racing my Harbor 20 sailboat in 2015, and our fleet routinely gets 20+ boats on the line for this event.  It is well-worth moving my Harbor 20 the seven miles down the Severn to the race area to be able to compete in a one-design fleet several times a year, but it takes advance logistical work.  I have to use my powerboat to tow my sailboat boat down the night before, which this year was Friday, June 18.  On Thursday, June 17 I had to go fill up my powerboat so it would have enough gas for the roundtrip -- since it only had 1/4 of a tank, not having filled up since August, 2020.  

Had a nice evening ride down to Smith's Marina into 10-12 mph winds from the South, filled her up, and had a beautiful return run.  A nice evening all around!
