Thanks, Michael. If you're ever up here visiting during sailing season, let us know. We'd be happy to take you out on Sapphire! Gordon On Sep 29, 2010, at 3:27 PM, Michael Murphy wrote:
great-- looks like first class sailng. The photos were great. My sister lives in Milwakee; I wish that it wasn't a 20 hour haul to get to Lake Superior from North Carolina.

Our Door County cruise was great fun, even though rain and gale-force winds clipped our sailing time from four to two days. Two M-17 owners -- me, and Andrei Caldararu of Madison, Wi -- participated.
On our first day out, on Sister Bay, conditions were still rough, with 20-knot-plus winds and big waves built over a multi-day gale. The vigorous sailing was very fine, and the boats performed very well! On our second day we enjoyed clear skies and a 10-or-so-knot following breeze as we broad reached from Sister Bay southwest to Egg Harbor, with a lunch stop in the lee of Horseshoe Island (adjacent to Peninsula State Park).
Here's a link to my Door County cruise photo album on Picasa:
