Sunday brought amazing weather: sunny, warm, breezy. Just right for a day of sailing after my church gig was over.
It was, indeed, a great sailing day. Even when I slipped during a tack and flipped the boat. And got tangled in a bunch of ropes as the boat went over (I ended up under the boat telling myself not to panic, which I didn't, and fortunately extracted myself from the ropes just before B. found my foot and pulled me out from under the cockpit).
Good thing I've been exercising every morning, because I needed all the muscle I had to haul myself up onto the bow of the boat (it sure looks a lot higher from the water line...). Got a couple of bad bruises, but B. has worse ones. Amazingly, we emerged from our unscheduled ocean swim with sunglasses (and in my case, rubber boots) intact. Now I'm careful to brace my feet on the centerboard.
