Fast sailing day


We left Frankfort at 7:00 AM and made to Charlevoix by 5:00 PM.  It was a great day of sailing with 15 to 18 knots of winds out of the SSE.  We were traveling at 6.5 to 7.5 knots all the way, under main and jib.  Our maximum speed was 9.4 knots.  We had some light rain most of the day, but the canvas over the cockpit really helped to make it a great day of sailing.  It was cool to have them open the bridge for us in Charlevoix.  The attached pictures are of us with the boat in Charlevoix.
