linuxwrangler Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 It's a beautiful evening so we went to the yacht club for the Friday races and BBQ. The beer was cold, the BBQ hot and the weather wonderful. Too bad someone didn't check the tide book: Despite full spinnaker, they are stuck in the mud within shouting distance of the bar. But only a couple minutes later, another J105 decided to provide them some company: One eventually got off, the other was still stuck an hour later waiting for the tide to rise. But it's not so bad when being stuck gives you front row seats to the crescent moon setting over the Golden Gate Bridge along with Venus, Mars and Spica making the other three points of a "kite": Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syzygies Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 The first is still a beautiful picture! (Linux was over the other day, admiring the KK build quality. I'd say it's only a matter of time!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conodo12 Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Excellent pics! Thanks for sharing! Being a former sailor (Navy and some recreational sailing) I knew looking at that pic that something was up before reading your caption. Just not enough water action on the bow of that boat with the spinnaker sail up and full of wind! Glad they got out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
