Heading North

219

SPOILER ALERT: If you haven’t listened to Season One of the podcast yet, this may give some things away. I highly recommend checking out the podcast.


Starting Mileage (This Trip): 448.2 NM

I’m gonna be out of range for a long time today—maybe into tomorrow—so I may have to circle back later. But here’s so far…

[Below: My day in 60 seconds. I recommend you view this video on YouTube so you don’t miss the interactive features and your fellow #HowNotToSailers!]

05:15

I can hear somebody heading out. I should be, too. But I’m still enjoying my snug quarter berth.

06:30

Shower time. Won’t be another for a coupla days.

07:15

Working on Pops’ email list and today’s email broadcast…

07:47

Photography fun. I also get my boat neighbor to snap a picture of me standing on the dock astern of Jacie Sails.

10:48

Pops’ podcast up, other stuff attended to…

I had briefly entertained the thought of getting out of here at 04:00. Yeah…so that’s not happening. I’m gonna use every damned second of that 11:00 check out.

11:30

Couldn’t see the autohelm display, and couldn’t restart it without seeing what screen it was on… so drifted in neutral a minute and unplugged the cable and plugged it back in. Good to go.

11:52

This tug and barge that confused me so the other night really have things congested under the bridge.

11:53

Between the new bridge and the old span.

12:22

Just thinking what a nasty late night and early morning Tanya and I had in this area in August 2015…

(Beware: Fat shirtless Bradford footage…)

Okay, gonna be out of range for at least 10-12 hours. See ya on the other side!

(And from my log…here are the highlights.)






Very long day.
