Type of watercraft:

Took my wife on my new sailboat for the first time, and drove her around the neighborhood.  Low sixties with little of the South wind affecting us on Valentine and Plum creeks.  Nice to drive around with a depth gauge for the very first time in waters I've been plying for nine years now, but never with a depth gauge.  Really helpful!  Then dropped my wife back at the dock and took the sailboat out in 6 knots of breeze from the south, gusting to 10.  As more and more clouds rolled and it looked like rain, headed home and got the boat onto her lift straight after the second try, cleaned her up and put everything away.
