photos by Uncle Al and Dick Harrington

Tony and Mary looking pretty relaxed

Is Tony contemplating the spinnaker?

With his mainsail up, Dick begins to pull away from Solje.

We're still getting the occasional gust, but the winds seem to be mostly well under 15 knots now.

With Hans otherwise occupied, the W938 helm is taken over by ...
