Got to crew on a fellow Round Bay Sailor's boat while mine is being manufactured in Ohio, and it was a beautiful eveining with 6-10 knot breezes from the South, and on a Dehler 39, we were cooking. I've been beaten by this boat over a hundred times when in my Harbor 20, so it was nice to actually be on-board and see how easily she went 7-8 knots. Got to grind winches for the genoa and the symmetrical spinnaker pole. I'd never been on a boat that didn't fly an aysmmetrical spin, so this was all new -- and great to learn!
A great crew on a great boat with good wind and a nice sunset -- great way to start the season!
