Solo Round Kitsap, Update 9

Took the boat out yesterday for a sail and what a good day it was! Set sail, towed the dinghy, anchored, boarded the dinghy from the boat, shipped Chief aboard the dinghy, went rowing with Chief, and put it all away!

Everything worked as expected with the exception of stowing the anchor, I need a bigger, preferably wider not taller, bucket for the anchor rode and chain! Someone recommended using an old fashioned laundry basket.

Hey! I'm ready to stow and go! Looking forward to some warm days and cool nights. The forecast is all about the GIANT high pressure system that is parking itself right off the north west coast. Which means late summer quiet and cool nights, and warm, sunny, and windy days! Looks like I hit the lotto on the first leg of the trip.

Still have a couple of things to post.  Pictures and forms.  I know boring to most, but if I post them, I'll always have a record of them on any computer I happen to come across on any trip I make.


Campy Out!
