"Most forms of transportation work against natural forces, using engines and machinery to overcome inertia, friction, and gravity, excluding the influence of the elements as much as possible. Moving in a sailboat depends on your harmony with the forces of nature; you are not overcoming the forces of nature, but moving with them."
Jan Adkins "The Craft of Sail"

Q. Why am I smiling?

Scituate Harbor, Massachusetts, November 11, 2007. When I woke that morning, it was 26 degrees outside, and, with no heater aboard (yet!), not much warmer in the cabin. The day before, we crossed the bay in 14 foot seas. I spent more time than I'd like to admit examining the swim platform. Half our food stayed behind in the car, the water in the holding tank tastes kind of funky, and the cabin looks like a bomb went off.

A. I'm having fun! (And clearly insane.)


Last fall at the survey...

As always, Kat-Cat is amused.
