Mizzen Sail

Today was another glorious day aboard the Vérité. This unusual weather pattern has been our friend and has allowed us to keep on keeping on. Today we got a bee in our bonnets and with calculated abandon we hoisted the mizzen. It was just enough sail to catch the breeze. There we were... rowing out of the Thea Foss when we looked over at the Urban Water's building. Parked at dock side was the Adventuress!! (Check them out at http://www.soundexp.org/) Oh, my what a lovely sailing vessel. Hails of good cheer crossed the water. For their entertainment with strong voices we shared our shanty - "We are the WOWer's mighty, mighty WOWer's..." as we stroked away. With a full boat, a mizzen sail, eagles soaring, harbor seals following, thwart bags full of snacks galore... it just doesn't get better than this!

 

Watch as the Adventuress raises her sails.

 

Don't you hate it when people photograph you while you are eating?

Plum and Asian Pear Salsa - yum!

Casual sailing... somebody's has to experience it.
