Better you than me. I am not a deep water sailor.

Right down the middle of Long Island sound, we left Newport RI ~11PM Fri, I hit my bunk ~1AM, sometime while I was asleep took a nearly disastrous detour into Gardiners Bay, Those pics were taken just after dawn by one of the crews girlfriend, no one would come up on deck despite one of the most fun rides I've ever driven.
Wish I had more pics but it seems that when it was exciting and picturesque there was too much other stuff to do.
Most memorable was J24 Eastcoast's in Annapolis, 120 boat fleet in some really nasty weather, we beat 121 of them them and the view of the fleet spread across the Chesepeak behind us was was amazing
