... 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?

What's up for 2008

... not much yet. Me and Chris almost sailed on the new years day, almost. Spend some time waiting for the wind to come up in boston. Well, it was the only place that was not windy... Ninigret was gusting to 49, Cape was in mid 20's, it was windy north of boston... sometimes you just can not win...
 


 Anyway, here is the picture from the Christmas Eve. Me and Chris sailed at Ninigret for about 3 hours. It was quite cold, especially considering that I just got back from Miami few hours earlier...
