Beautiful Morn, Dismal Eve

Such a beautiful morning today, we headed out of Fishing Bay near Deltaville, VA before the sun rose.





We had a spirited sail down the Chesapeake with 15 - 20 knot winds on a close reach with a reefed main and headsail. We sailed at a speed of 8.5 knots for quite some time. Our average speed for the day was closer to 7 knots. That's flying for us!



We ended our day tied to a free dock at the entrance to the Dismal Swamp Canal.
