peaked



Cool morning, clear skies.  Friendly questions in the parking lot at the ramp, greetings from the rowing club.  Gentle wind out of the south, an ebb tide carrying us down the Lafayette to the Elizabeth River.  Steady wind, faltering wind, easy relaxed sailing with time to experiment with the GoPro mounted up on the peak of the gaff.  No rush to go anywhere, most of the morning just off the wide mouth of the Layfayette, then a short sail around the coal piers to Town Point Reach, then back again to glassy calm water, and a pleasant sail back up the Lafayette.



Monday's forecast for Betsy Town.
