Sailing Tipsea
I bought a sailboat and decided to finally pursue my lifelong dream of sailing. I purchased a MacGregor 26M and this is my record of the skills I learn, places I go, maintenance I perform, and pretty much anything related to my boat "Tipsea."

I never did sell the boat
It sat, unused for two years. Concentrated on camping. Wife just expressed an interest in the boat. I'm cleaning her up and looking for a place to keep her in the water. :)

What a Waste
I sailed for 2 hours in 2016. Literally took the boat out three times all summer long. I motored mostly all three times in order to get to a live band or to go to a swimming hole. Nobody was interested in sailing but me.
If I don't drastically improve my sailing time in 2017 I will sell the boat.

Ending 2015
I started a new job last September. I got busy, hauled the boat out of the water in October, and forgot about the blog.
I had a huge list of things I wanted to do to the boat over the fall. I didn't do any of them.
I'll return in 2016 for the sailing season.

Beach Day Week #2
Still no sailing. Not my fault. Sometimes all those pesky family obligations get in the way. Like a 60th birthday party for an Aunt, then a sick wife the next day.
Wife works the next weekend so barring some kind of thunderstorm or illness or other unforeseen event, I plan on sailing Saturday.
Here's more beach pictures and a short video I took. Same beach as last weekend. Only this time we were there on a Sunday. Busier than I expected. I'll return to sailing stuff real soon.
