We scheduled a great day for an afternoon sail with our friends. They brought wonderful snacks to share and we had perfect weather and winds to take Pasargada out of Elliott bay and out across the shipping channel in the sound. We didn’t really go north of Magnolia – the CYC PSSR Big Boat races were going on and we didn’t feel like heading up and getting in anybody’s way while they raced. We went back to our dock and had a little snack picnic. Here are some photos from the day.

Such a clear day, watch the boom!

Wow, sunglasses in April?

Friends can stay out of the wind tucked under the dodger.
