Thanks Gary.
Next trips planed.
1. the Coeur d'alene 4th of July sailboat parade in Idaho, details below. We need to get a few dozen or so flags to fly on our sailboat for the parade.
2. Sail to the San Juan Islands. We need a ton of gear to make this trip but thats half the fun.
3. The Wolf Lodge Express - just after the sun sets over Lake Coeur d’Alene the Wolf Lodge Express gathers steam in an eastern bay and hurtles west across the water. The Express—a land breeze that forms when the land cools in the evenings, the warm lake water pulls the breeze in from the east. It is very predictable, and a fun time to sail.
I will be working on my Keel issue this weekend and replacing all my turnbuckles as well as a few other details. I have to install a new compass, and a VHF radio. Thankfully all the years in electronics engineering school will pay off and Ill be doing something that comes second nature to me, electronics.
Here is a cool picture I took while sailing Lake Pend Oreille last weekend.
and our Clipper
