I'm in the market as were . Colonial Beach
I was just sent some really cool pictures by my Uncle who was out sailing his boat during the cruise.

Ok....So I managed to set the spinnaker and the wind built to 15 knots. I flew it for a while and then dumped it like a pro (things actually worked out as I had planned).

In this picture I am entering the Pax River surfing some crazy waves. I was going against 1.5 knots of current and the speed on the GPS read 7 knots when I was surfing the waves! There was about 20 knots of wind behind me in this picture:

This picture is just a nice sailing picture. The crazy part is that I was in a jacket and pants because it was cool when I started my cruise. It ended up HOT and the last cruise was extra hot!
