Had to wait for the wind to kick in on Saturday the 25th - so we got out of the slip - very nicely with full crew about noonish. Barometer was at 29.84, Temperature was 85 and winds were out of the SE at 5-10 knots. Got the sails up quickly and headed out not sure where the winds would blow us. First mate was at the helm and I handled the sails. Had some fun sailing around in the Chester before we decided that Reed Creek would be our final destination for an overnight anchorage. Headed in at pretty much low tide and found a nice spot, eventually 7 other boats were in the anchorage - 3 sailboats actually rafted up on the eastern side - but more than enough room for all!
Sunday we spent the morning and afternoon exploring reed creek on my SUP and the first mates kayak. After checking the weather and seeing the impending overnight rain/storms, we decided to head back to the marina for the overnight (bad call - because the storms didn’t come in until after noon on Monday!). Left the creek right when it was predicted that the winds would come up - they didn’t so we had to motor a bit. Finally, we did get some winds while heading up Langford Creek - so we took advantage and put out the Genoa. A very lovely weekend - and a nice “first” overnight at anchor.
