Sailing, Sailing...















On Tuesday, June 17, 2008 Sailor Bob
joined long-time friend Larry for a day of sailing on Larry's boat. We left Hansen's Harbor about 3 miles north of Lake City, Minnesota at 10:30 AM. As we motored out of the harbor we noticed that the wind was blowing directly down Lake Pepin so our trip to Pepin, Wisconsin would be direct. We arrived about 1 3/4 hours later. The return trip required numerous tacks resulting in a return time of 4:30PM and about a 30 to 35 mile trip. That's the most sailing I've ever done. Beautiful weather and perfect winds made for a delightful day of sailing (click here for photos).

Thanks, Captain Larry!
