Update

I know, it has been a little while since a recent post. Well I thought something was overdue and since most people on my Facebook could care less about sailing, this is the venue for it, even if it just entertains me.

I've been doing some sailing in the local Tampa Bay waters. The weather has really been cooperating and reminding us why it is so nice to live and sail here. The winds are consistent and the temps are comfortable. I've been out on my friend John Bettini's 28 foot Sabre several times. It was great casual sailing and just great experiences. I had a good amount of helm time on both outings, which is really nice.

Pat and I did the usual Sunday Race at DIYC, which was also great because the winds are great and the temps are perfect. I'm pretty sure there is a race this coming Sunday and I will probably play hooky one day next week since work is kind of quiet with the holidays and all.

I do have some new pics and need to update some to the blog. Hopefully I'll have some time soon for all that. I did however want to include the latest video from the Volvo Ocean Race. I've been following the legs and daily reports on Youtube.
