2010 Port Jeff (NY) Raft-up organized on the seafaring forum, taken just after sunrise on 8/15/10. I didn't take it, I was still down below waking up (and recovering) from the previous night.

this was one of favorite weekend trips of the year, I single handed this trip as my girlfriend was at a bachelorette party this weekend. I remembered how much fun it can be to sail by yourself when I managed to tweak the sails so she sailed herself with no tiller input for a little over 2 hours, staying perfectly on course.

A couple pix from a cruise to Boca grande Fl last weekend. A 40 mile beam reach down and back in 10-15kts of wind. The last 3hrs of the run down were under the full moon. Temps reached 80 with lows in the 50's and not a cloud all weekend. Ideal trip to paradise.

My computer monitor just died, so I hooked up the 32 flat screen to the CPU. I looked back at all these 2010 pictures. Your picture with the boat framed by the driftwood is really good. Suitable for framing! If it was my boat, I'd use the picture for the desktop wallpaper.

Ron, Thanks and the hi-rez version is actually set as the background image on our big flat screen. All our guests notice it. The day was just as nice as the pic looks. March/April in SW Fl are perfection.

The other shot was easily done on our extended boat hook and the camera set on timer. you can really get some interesting angles of your boat or crew with a simple pole mounted point and shoot. I try to keep a small camera in the cockpit and just take pictures...which we always appreciate on long winter days as my memory fades.
Happy to share. Mike.
