... exactly why are we doing this?

this is what i asked myself on sunday while Chris was breaking the ice at ninigret. literally. what looked like sleet from the beach turned out to be rather hard icy thingi that one could not just walk through. few times i expected him to turn around.. well. once he was out and planing i had no choice but to go and rig up ... i wish i had my camera with me...

we sailed for about 2 hours. chris on 5.2 me on 5.0, it was not nearly as cold as it looked. so i'm pretty happy i've got out. this was 2nd time this year for me. first time was on jan 8th? i think. it was much warmer and much windier too. 

one funny thing i noticed: when i don't sail for 2 weeks or so, it becomes much easier for me to keep going without sailing... any ideas on why is that?
