Some clips of sailing on New Year's day 2011. Winds 15 gusting to the upper teens.

Thank You ... That is such a hoot to see and almost feel during the winter. Remembering all the fun as the winter indoor chores are done.

Hey dave, nice video...went out today, had to "test" the new main. Not as much wind as yesterday, but enough for a good, fun sail. Got to love FL this time of the year.

Hope "testing" went well, we had on and off showers on the west coast on Sunday and had to stay in.

Now I am envious ! I wimped out last week and put my cover on my boat in the slip because of a big snow storm that wound up bypassing our area. I left the cover on because we headed to NYC to visit friends for the New years weekend and now I am back at work ...eating lunch and watching you have fun on Tampa Bay ! maybe later this week I will take off the cover and go for a sail. You shouldn't be the only one out there having fun !

Dave, we had a couple sprinkles, but mostly a dry sail. I think we'll have to run another mainsail "test", just to make sure it still moves the boat forward.

Larry, come on down...
