I have never raced Leech though it does sound like fun. There is a large regatta held there every year at a resort however most of the launch facilities around the lake are a bit lacking for sailors due to the shallow depths.

Looks a lot like the Kalmar Nyckel, out of Delaware. Similar period. Check the color of the topsides. Kalmar Nyckel - Wikipedia We came across her in Long Island Sound at one point, and at another point, the Half Moon.

I’ve lived my whole life lost but it’s only in the last 55 years that I’ve been old enough to empty the bottle.

It’s not the first one. I’ve been lost before.
