Alden 38' Challenger yawl Rockport Harbor
This was a hot August afternoon on the coast of Maine. I can tell from the photo that it was as hot on the water as an inland hay field, because there was no wind; no cooling sea breeze from the cold ocean waters. I like it hot.

This was 2013 heading north as we passed Ocean View NJ, it's about 17 miles north of Cape May. Unfortunately most of my pics are done with an old iphone so no stunning shots :(, but good memories.

Like Jackdaw said, It's been a beautiful, warm March in Texas. Here's a shot from the last time I was on the Bay a couple weeks ago. I hope to be on the Bay sailing Saturday and Sunday this weekend, if my crew shows up, practicing with the new spinnaker.

The Batavia is a replica of a Dutch East Indies ship (VOC) which was wrecked in Australia on her maiden voyage in 1628. Amongst the interesting features is the 'traverse board' by which the helmsman recorded each hour's estimated course and speed so the navigator could keep an accurate DR.
