Trip length: 
1 day
Type of watercraft: 
Sail

After raking leaves, there was still some time to sail. 55 degrees or so, with puffy West wind from 5 to 14. Motored out into Round Bay and then enjoyed great upwind run, managing to get to 6 knots sustained as I headed to Sherwood Forest.  Great breeze coming back upriver, heading to Linstead before tacking over to the Crownsville side of the river. Sailed right into the slip on a dying breeze just around sunset. Beautiful day, and I barely needed the four layers I was wearing.
