I don't think it got below 80 at night! But, with a nice breeze blowing it was comfortable and I slept great. West wind carried me easily out of the Back River. As afternoon arrived the winds shifted to a SSW direction forcing me to sail further east close hauled. After a few tacks I arrived at the HRBT right at maximum outgoing flow it was a battle to get past Fort Wool. Finally I fired up the diesel. I hate to do this because that isn't the game for me! Sailing is. But, I needed to get home for events in the evening.
