Boston Harbor Sail

Bob and Bernadette Landry and Barbara and I were suppose to go sailing overnight this last Thursday and Friday.  Unfortunately, the weather forecast did not cooperate.  Thunderstorms and rain were predicted.  Bob is a bit new to sailing.  He has a boat for the week but got caught between thunderstorms early in the week.  Like most sailors, one experience is enough and so when storms were predicted he canceled the trip.  Of course, the weather was wonderful.  As most people know, weather forecast and actual weather are only nominally related. Soooo

Friday mourning Bob called and we decided to go for a sail.  The forecast was, of course a bit marginal but nothing ventured.  Unfortunately, by the time he's called Barbara had made other plans.  So the three of us went off for a sail.

Bob had joined a timeshare for the season our of Rowes Warf, Boston.  This is right in the heard of the sea district and quite the place.  At any event off we went and of course had a wonderful time.  We sailed out of the marina past the airport and out into the islands.  Here's an aerial view.

Here's a few photos.  There are more in the album.
