Last year, one of the Sail Magazine editors listed 10 things we should do before winterizing our sailboats. One of them was to go sailing at night under a full moon. Well this September, I finally made it. Went sailing on the Neuse River in NC under a full moon and it was GREAT. Winds were light and the moonshine lit up the water like shimmering silver. Absolutely beautiful and highly recommended. As a side, on my way back to my slip, I passed a schooner that had been blown on to the shore by the recent hurricane- the masthead anchor light was on - better safe..... All in fun.
