Friday was a short sailing day. We first had brunch in
downtown Rockland, then departed from the Journey’s End Marina at 11am. We were only heading about 7nm up the coast
to Camden so took a casual sail. We initially headed out with the spinnaker and
had the opportunity to fine tune the system to find best sail angles, tackline
length with different wind angles. Well, just generally futz around.
As we dowsed the spinnaker and started to head upwind past Mark Island to
cross Penobscot Bay towards Camden we were able to enjoy several Windjammers that
were sailing away from Camden.

We finally arrived at Wayfairer’s marina that is a really
nice place. Its at the head of the harbor next to downtown, well equipped and great
staff.
Today Yolande was happy. No nausea, warm and sunny. For the first time on the trip she played music. Spirits are picking up.
Great Photos
