There were icicles hanging from SPARTINA this morning. Some lines were frozen in place. I had to break some ice on the rudder to lower the rudder blade. Not my usual process for getting ready to sail.
Not much in the way of wind today, but plenty of blue skies and sunshine. At times the wind was undetectable, het there was never a time that SPARTINA stopped moving. Something about that cold heavy air, the boat just glides slowly over the calm water.
Temperatures probably reach the low 40s, though with the sun it felt warmer than that.
Warmer weather expected over the next couple of days. Hopefully I won't have to deal with any more ice for a while.
