Teresa is jumping ship tomorrow for commitments in VT, so since this may be her last day of sailing this season, she sailed with Ron to Kingston, 44° 13’.65N 76° 28’.73W. Mary drove to Kingston and met us there. We tried out our new screecher in 5-8 knot winds and were pleased with our speed downwind. The wind soon dropped however and we furled the sail and motored for an hour. Then the wind picked up and we unfurled the screecher again and sailed at 5-8 knts for a few hours until the wind picked up to 20 knots. So the screecher was furled again and we got the genoa out. Arrived at Kingston, docked with some difficulty in 18knt cross winds, tidied up the boat and met Mary.
Went for dinner in Kingston – lots of eating and drinking choices here!
Today’s log: 29.9 nm, season total: 1475.6
