Monomoy has left the slip!

Wow! It was like an Elvis moment! We finally had enough water to scrape out of the slip at 1:30pm CST on Saturday the 15th for the first sail of 2011.

Pogo was in awe.

Heading to Pensacola Bay!

Ben’s dad Steve is in town, so we had the chance to get him out on the bay. The wind was fairly light in the 5 knot range, but the temp was around 54, so it made for a relaxing sail of about 2.5-3.5 knot SOG (speed over ground).

Do I remember how to read the plotter? It’s been so long!

Returning to the slip.

We only spent a few hours out, but it was worth it; we all had a great time, then picked up pizza to eat dinner on the boat when we returned.
