Yesterday we went for our last sail of the season. The temperatures were cool—mid 50’s—but the wind was ideal. We stayed nice and warm inside the enclosure as long as the sun was shining. The only other boat out sailing on the river was Spontaneity, soon to be renamed Azzurra II, owned by our friends Dawn and Ray. When we left the slip the tide was extremely low. The TideSlide cleats were at the bottom of the the poles and we had the step way down to the onto the boat. Fortunately, Cambridge Creek is deep so Breeze On had plenty of water under the keel. 
We love our new sail.

After we returned to shore we washed each enclosure panel with soap and water and hung them back up to dry. This morning we rolled each panel and put them away in the storage bags. We took the bimini and dodger off of the boat. We made several trips from the boat to the condo bringing the enclosure panels, bimini, dodger, mattresses, cockpit cushions, bedding, and portable generator into the condo. Next George will winterize the outboard motor and take the sails off.
We love our new sail.
