TALES AND TAILS

Let me start this tale of adventure on the high sea by saying it was a clear, brisk day; an afternoon perfect for roaming the local waters. Two tall ships were battling off the point with their cannons disrupting the afternoon calm. The 10 knot wind made for a gentle breeze as we moved along with only the genny flying from our spar. A gray whale, traveling south and moving along at 4-5 knots, crossed our path at a distance but made the day complete. Richard Henry Dana was smiling down on us today. Arrrrh matey!
