Underway-Underpower
Posted By: Sailor, 05-29-2009, 08:23 PM

This afternoon, we spent several pleasant hours on the bay in light to moderate winds. Here are four shots, taken with my new DA 15, as we motored back to the dock - where we are now with the shore power engaged, the A/C on and cool dry air permeating the cabin.

Really nice shots Jer, I really like the framing of the first one. I'm also glad the wheel housing is there, I'd hate to have to look up you shorts.

A sailing boat with A/C does not compute. It just seems wrong somehow. I associate sailing with a wet suit and a trapeze harness

Are those Sperry Topsiders - Mainsail in #3?

Actually, all kidding aside, it looks like a great boat.

Was this the DA 15?

Thanks, Richard, and yes - they're Sperrys, it is indeed the furled main and I did use the DA 15 for these.

Thanks, buddy. Actually the "good life" will include about 3 hours of some minor maintenance today - it is a boat, after all.
