I gave up on the lights and took my nephew sailing anyway. We launched at Maxwelton on Whidbey Island at a not-high-enough tide with great difficulty. I think I need to get a second hitch for my car because the one I got, which is great for trailering, holds the tongue too low for launching (I don't have the tongue extension.) Anyway, we ended up tying the trailer to the hitch by a rope (resting on the tongue wheel) and letting it roll back into the water in order to get the boat off. I parked the car and trailer and we took off. Not much wind for awhile, but it eventually came up. We had intended to sail around for awhile and then retrieve at Maxwelton but I decided I can't get the boat out easily there without something done about the trailer hitch, so sailed over through Useless Bay to Sunlight Beach and anchored. (My cabin is on Sunlight Beach, but on the back side so I can't see the boat from my house.) The boat will be on tide flats at low tide but in a place with soft sand and no rocks, so it should be fine. I'll sail it back after fixing the trailer hitch or else sail it further to a better ramp. We just went out to check to see if it was dragging anchor, but it was just sailing around on the anchor a little. My nephew, who is 13, had previously only sailed a small boat (Sabot and Sunfish) but he single-handed for a few tacks so I could take pictures. So now how do I get my pictures onto the photo site?
