Cruise #3 : All systems go

Crew : Boston, Dabby, Captain McCarthy, Cory the Kid, Smellen


 Great wind today, we raised the genoa and were flying. It was terrific to have the Captain on board. He sailed an Alberg on Boston Harbor for many years and has a lot of knowledge (and hilarious stories) to share.



It's hard to show how far we were heeled over from the deck, but the rail got wet and a lot of stuff slid around below. Exciting!



We also deployed the new swim ladder to great acclaim, $46 well spent.

 Smellen was delightful, as always.


Big thanks to Chief Rigger Cory for all the knot tying and stuff.


Mid tack.
