Delivery of Miss Sadie

I'll have to enter my notes after I get her all the way home. Had to leave her in Matagorda because of 40 knot wind here today. Don't want to be in Matagorda Bay in those conditions.

Sailing in Galveston Bay. It was pretty cold.  The hand on the helm is James a very good friend and a kick to be around.

We're under sail here doing around 6.7 mph. Nice sail.

We got into Freeport at 8:30 pm. Long day as we left at 6:50 am. 69 miles. Sunrise in Freeport. Charlie and I left Freeport at 6:15 headed to Matagorda. Arrived there at 3:30. Jame had gotten off in Freeport to visit with his dad and pick up his truck. He was kind enough to crew for me and give Charlie and I a ride to Clearlake.

Miss Sadie tied up in a slip at Matagorda Harbor Marine. James came and picked us up on his way back to Port Lavaca. Motor/sailing from Freeport to Matagorda was nice. We got up to 7.2 mph at one point. We average 6 to 6.7 under the 130 jib with a low speed motor. Just above idle.

I must say Miss Sadie look pretty good for being neglected as she way.
