Scheduled with a group of friends to go out sailing tonight. Turns out most were unable to make it, but an old college friend and I pulled Zippey out of her slip and headed out. There was not much wind when we got out of the marina so we motored towards Seattle for a bit.

Had a fantastic sunset sail this evening. A few friends invited themselves along on what turned out to be a gorgeous evening. There was no wind, but we had a great time bobbing on the water and fellowshiping. Sadly this was also a going away sail for Alcane Clowe. Alcane is moving a few hours

It has been a few weeks since I have had time to get Zippey out sailing. I miss her. Snapped a shot of her basking in the sun today while.

Now with video! Courtesy Automattic Last year a good friend, Mike Karikas, moved to Orange County right as I was coming back to Seattle. This week he is in Seattle working with his colleagues and asked if I would be interested in taking him and some co-workers out for a sail after work. Of course

Alcane and I took the boat out this afternoon as an escape from a hectic and crazy day. Zippey is getting a lot of growth along her bottom. I am still frustrated that no ablative was put on the bottom when I had her painted. I was told first that soft ablative was going on,
