    I could be wildly optimistic (yes, wildly), but there might be wind tomorrow regardless of the forecast. Either way, I'll be sailing out of Richmond. Maybe slowly slowly, but on the water, and looking for (as Carliane might say) y'all.

    Wildly optimistic or not, there was wind. Late wind, but it was enough to move Dura Mater. Or was that the 4.6 knot ebb? Well, whatever it was, we sailed/got flushed over to Point Blunt in no time, and it was lovely with all the cloud formations. Lots of people out there for one last sail before the relatives arrive.

    When we arrived back at Richmond YC Harbor, there were twinkle lights on Six Brothers

    And the sky looked like this as I covered the mainsail

    Finally, in a blatant bid to upstage Surprise! before she comes back to E Dock, here is a photo of Dura Mater's Christmas present, snagged early.

    Anybody thinking of sailing on Boxing Day (i.e. Dec 26)? Room for two more?
    Thanks

    Great photo's Jacquie. The colors in the that new Christmas line were perfect.

    I'm in. And Steve Katzman is coming down from Tahoe to sail on Dianne out of Richmond. Philippe, of course you are welcome to sail with me on Dura Mater. Maybe you'll ride that fast motorcycle of yours up and offer reciprocity? I'll bring my bicycle helmet.

    Philippe is staying home. Red Sky is making excuses. Who knows? Maybe Steve K will stay up in the clubhouse drinking beer. DM and I are sailing.
