Sailing South aboard Lucy III: 2020-2021 (Day 1)

September 4, 2020, Point Bay Marina, Charlotte, Vermont.

Marc-  The boat has been updated, our bags are packed, we are ready to go.  We are taking this old Yawl South to the Florida Keys if all goes well for the winter.  Tomorrow should be our actual departure date when we slip the lines and head down the Lake.  Our masts are still up and we hope to get some sailing done at the start of this trip. 

Stephanie  helped load the boat and saw us off at 18:10. She apparently took some excellent photos.  We immediately unfurled the genoa and set sail South with Sue at the helm.  We did about 4.5 to 5 knots towing the dinghy all the way to Kingsland Bay.   It was great to see some of our RSYC friends here and we thank Roger and Susan for allowing us to use their mooring.
