Dancing with the Sea!

As far as dancing with the sea - usually some of my best sails have been right before a low was coming in or right after it was almost over. These times usually give the best winds and the waves are big enough to give an adrenaline rush but not the fear and stress that a storm give. Here's a clip from one of my blogs: "But I wasn't going to be foolish tonight and either wait for the storm to really hit or for the winds to die. So I tacked back. On this reach, I was close hauled heading directly for the red beacon signal, with the big waves thrusting the sailboat forward with every interval. Nothing seemed to be boring tonight. It just kept getting better and better. I had to keep a watchful eye out because at anytime it could cross the line from 'better' to crazy. Ok, at least I was ready..." Feel free to read 'Fear of the Storm' at http://stormsailingwithalbie.blogspot.com or you can also find it in the archive at the bottom of the page. :-)

Because the mast is now 29 feet, I found a Catalina 27 sail that fits it real well. CLICK on PIC to go to page all about different masts on the boat!.

Welcome to Sailing with Albie!

I made this blog because I wanted to share my adventures at sea with all of you! Some of you may be wishing they had their own boat or just want to 'get away' even if just at home on the web. So each week I decided to write down my feelings while out at sea and share them with you. If you enjoy them, please feel free to come back here weekly and see what's new. Also please share the blog with your friends and with those who you know like sailing!



Thanks!



Albie
