Winter Sailing

Keeping a stiff upper lip, and all that.


Actually, the Chesapeake is a beautiful, if lonely, place in the winter. Sailing near Annapolis for 6 hours today I saw not one boat. On Labor Day you can hop decks across and not get your feet wet.

Of course, the cabin heater's running, I've got a nice dodger, and I'm wearing ...

  • Fleece socks
  • Soccer training long pants
  • Wind pants
  • Turtle neck
  • Sweater
  • Shelled fleece jacket
  • Fleece balaclava
  • Fleece hat
  • And gloves... 
... so I'm perfectly warm.

  1. Glad you're enjoying the sailing .. even in the winter! It gets cold here in Louisiana, but not that cold so I guess we'd better get out there and sail soon!
