| SUMMARY OF JULY 22, 2006 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| New crew: Bianca: she'd sailed before, taking the basic sailing class at Gottschalk marina aboard Camp Lejeune. She's a great girl, environmental biologist; and married to a marine pilot. A former marine myself, I'm looking forward to meeting him. |

| Tara never sailed before, so it was all brand new to her. A fellow western NYer, she's a riot! I'm not sure whether she or Bianca introduced me to the boat drink "Mojitos", but God bless both of them for it. |

| We sailed down to marker 46, swerving all over the river as Bianca tried to steer. My friend, Rich, in his C&C 27, La Peguena, sailed behind in case we got into trouble. Once at 46, we set the anchor, rafted up and went for a swim. Bianca took the Mojitos in... |

| We had a blast, but finally had to set sail back to New River. The discussion continued, teaching along the way. It was a fantastic day. And, at the end of it, there were two more sailing addicts in the world...haha! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
