Sunday Sail

Out with Kevin 8/4/2103. Nice day at 72 degrees and consistent wind around 8 mph. Stats for the day - out for about 4 hours. Covered 15nm at an average of 4.2 knots. Top speed of 6.4 knots. Had a fun encounter with a pod of dolphins that were feeding. Took a video that is a little jumpy as I was steering and trying to take pictures also. Ended up Hove to with the dolphins all around us. Jumping and thrashing. It was quite a show. Just a few long tacks and a nice relaxing sail. Good to be back out on the boat again after work and weather delays!

I am experiencing difficulties uploading the map of the track and the dolphin video. I will upload as I am able to resolve the issues.

Here is the Dolphin video I posted to You Tube :-  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayntB1vzFik
