Sail out of Cape Lookout last year

Post by opie »

Eric (and others),

Just a fun video of my daughter and I having a great week together at Cape Lookout last year. I look forward to next season to do it with others.

Also, showing "Mr Bungee" doing all the steering for us. (I have had many sails of 30 to 40 minutes on a bungee cord tied to the wheel. It takes the right wind and the right balance of the sails. )
