Daysail - Pt. Madison

Sailed over at noon to Pt. Madison, Windy, blowing 23-28 knots. Had 2 reefs in from the start and was still a bit uncomfortable with havnig a toddler aboard. We got into Pt. Madison and borrowed a boey for an hour. No nap from Hanna, so we left at around 3:30 and as soon as we were back heeled over at 25 knots, she fell asleep in the leewards side of the cockpit. We tied a strap from her life jacket to the boat for mental security.

Daysail - Elliot Bay

Grandma watched Hanna and we took Impulsive out for a daysail. It's been too long! Pretty windy day, good exercise for putting reefs in under heavy wind. Blew 20-28 knots.

Girls only sailing

Diana took out her mom, Jen, her mother, Nancy and Tiffany. Spent the night at Winslow public dock. Sailed most of the way there and 1 hour on the way back then the wind died and motored the rest of the way back. Great trip.

Repeat trip of Blake Island and then Eagle Harbor - August

This trip is ideal for a toddler... Blake Island on the dock for 2 nights and Eagle Harbor Public Dock. Will be repeated many times more I'm sure.
We were determined to be at the dock on Blake Island so we parked at the temporary spot and walked the docks asking for someone to allow us to raft-up. We found a power boat. It's odd when people say "We don't raft up as a policy." Why? There's no wind... storm. Whatever.

Hanna got another cold at the end of this trip.
She also had a blast exploring the dock undersides with Pappa for mussles, crabs and buckets of baby jelly fish. At Eagle Harbor, there were quite a few starfish on the pilings from the low time. Good times.

Hanna frieked out when we motored from Blake to Winslow. Very long tantrum, face down on the cockpit bench. It was very sunny too, so when she calmed a bit we sprayed sunblock on her and she started screaming again for 10 minutes longer. 

Daysail to Port Madison with friends

We left the dock right when the summer misty rain stopped. Sailing was perfect across and back and we had blue sky by the time we were back at the dock. So relaxing! That's saying a lot for having 3 kids on board. Plus a toddler who took 1.5 hours to fall asleep for a nap in the v-berth.

Zincs replaced via SCUBA
